Strategic Management
Discussion Topic
Support your rationale with a specific company or organization. Your discussion company must not be an example company on the identical topic from the ebook; you cannot use the same company in the discussion participation as the assigned company of the projects in this course. Apply the 4 integral parts “Statements, support, in-text citations and references” in your discussion participation.
