trategic Plan, Part 1: Environmental Scan

You will perform an environmental scan for your target company.

Choose an organization according to the following:

• Current employer
• Most recent or former employer
• Place of business that you have patronized or have been familiar with over a long period of time.
  • Avoid choosing an organization that is so large that historical data would be difficult to apply. Firms in the Russell 2000^® index may fit well, whereas firms in the Dow 30 Industrial index probably do not.
• The organization can be a start-up that you or a significant other may create in the future. For a start-up, focus on an entrepreneurial idea that is of substantive interest, so this project leaves you with a product you may leverage in the future.

Write a 1,050-word minimum environmental analysis in which you include the following:

• Determine how to create value and sustain competitive advantage using the environmental scanning strategy.
• Evaluate in detail and with data the company’s external environment.
• Assess in detail the company’s general environment. What are the opportunities and threats?
• Evaluate the organization’s industry operating environment.

Format your paper according to APA guidelines.

You are a restaurant manager who is conducting a coaching discussion with one of your servers. Focus of the coaching: the server has repeatedly failed to complete store-closing operations before leaving for the night. Case in point is that the tables are never cleared, and the morning shift is forced to clean up the mess.

You have conducted a coaching analysis, and you have determined that the server is able to complete these responsibilities, that all obstacles to doing so have been removed, and that this is an important part of a server’s job in your restaurant.

1. Describe how you would encourage the server to agree that a problem exists, and what you would do if the server refuses to acknowledge that a problem exists.
2. Describe the options available to you in dealing with this situation. Which options would you select? Support your choices.
