After your recent successful presentation for the management team at
company XYZ, the board has invited you for another written report at
the next board meeting. Remember, now you are the so-called guru of
management theory. For this particular report, you must apply a
management theory to the current situation surrounding company
XYZ. Finally, be sure to teach the board members on the overview of
the historical development behind management theory.
Present one management theory that interests you. Identify the
theory’s structure (what are the components). Interpret the overall
historical development behind the theory. Use at least two academic
journal articles to support the theory. Compare and contrast it with
another management theory. Finally, include you own conclusion or
solution for the company.
Write a 5 to 8 page paper (excluding title page and reference page)
Your paper should be in APA style citing references as appropriate.
Use at least 5 but no more than 10 references with at least 3
references from journal articles (use the TUW library databases where
possible for this).
