Hi Everyone,

A quick reminder that your TCD #2 Assignment – Internal and External Analysis is due Monday (both UPLOADED by 8am and a printed copy that you bring to class). PLEASE don’t wait until right before class to print your paper, because you need to be in class early or on time for the peer review process. You will also need to bring a highlighter (yellow or orange preferred) and a pen (any color other than black).

The following are the components of the paper (usually this will be 20-30 pages):

(NOTE: You must also still bring a printed copy to class the day it is due)

Executive Leadership – (do not list or copy/paste the leaders’ information – write a brief narrative about what they offer)
Include: Relevant background, diversity, experience, etc.

External Environment – (See Exhibit 4.9, Exhibit 4.18, Ch 4 Appendix, Exhibit 4.1)
Factors in the Remote Environment
