2: Steve Nash Fitness World

Order Description

Analyze the organization’s situation, propose some strategies, and then recommend one of those strategies along with the most important actions the organization must undertake to implement it.

Your assignment will be based on an organization of your choosing. It can be a small, private organization; it can be a large, publicly traded company. It can be an organization with which you are involved or an organization in which you are interested. You should immediately start thinking about the organization you will choose for Assignment 3 and, once you make your decision, submit it for approval (by completing Assignment 0). Shortly thereafter, one of the Academic Experts will let you know if your selection has been approved. If not, you will have to choose another organization. The decision of the Academic Expert may not be appealed.

Choosing an Organization

In choosing an organization for Assignment 3, keep in mind that you will need to access a lot of information about the organization. Most importantly, perhaps, you will need access to its financial information. This is not a problem for publicly traded corporations. And it’s usually not a problem with non-profit organizations. However, privately held corporations may be more reluctant to share this sort of information with outsiders. Therefore, you should confirm that you will be able to get access to the necessary information before you seek permission to analyze the organization in Assignment 3. You should also confirm that this organization does not object to you revealing some of this information to your marker/professor.

Something else to keep in mind when choosing your organization is that your analysis must reflect the organization’s current situation. Any significant developments happening more than a month prior to the submission of your assignment must be reflected in your analysis. So just to clarify, you cannot, for example, analyze Google’s situation in 2007.
