Management Planning and Organizing

Assignment 1: Management Planning and Organizing

As part of management planning, companies starting up need to define their vision (long-term idealized ultimate company goal), their mission (or purpose statement), their values (their corporate beliefs), and their company goals that they will endeavor to meet in both the short and long term. These vision, mission, and values statements are typically found on corporate websites.

Once the company goals are determined, management addresses organizing to delineate the tasks and responsibilities of employees to accomplish the goals. For this assignment, you will be using the “Tim’s Coffee Shoppe” scenario from the final project assignment. This business simulation will be referenced throughout this course as you work on various aspects of your assignments.

Access Tim’s Coffee Shoppe. After viewing the scenario, address the following checklist items concerning planning and organizing in an 8-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation:
