You made an agreement with your parents (or spouse, partner, relative, or friend) that you would submit a report at this time describing the progress you have made toward your educational goal (employment, certificate, or degree). If all else fails, you can address the memo to me.

In memorandum format (several templates can be found in Word,) write a progress report that describes your progress toward your educational goal. Address your progress report to your parents, spouse, partner, relative, or friend. In your memo (a) describe your goal; (b) summarize the work you have completed thus far; (c) discuss thoroughly the work currently in progress, including your successes and anticipated obstacles; and (d) forecast your future activities in relation to your scheduled completion date.

This memo should be formatted as follows:

• Left and right margins should be 1.25”
• Font should be Arial 12 pt.
• Standard spacing (double space guidewords and single space body of memo)
• Length should be no more than 2 pages

For this activity, read Chapter 6 in your textbook, International Business: The Challenge of Global Competition (Ball) and Chapters 10 and 16 in the text, Evolution of International Aviation (Rhoades).

For this activity, read Chapter 6 in your textbook and answer the question: Why might governments nationalize firms [airlines] and why might a non-government-owned airline have an advantage over a government-owned or supported airline?

Prepare a 2-3-page response that answers the question and includes a critical analysis illustrating how your response supports the Module 4 Learning Objectives.

Instructions

Per our course syllabus, I made note that each of you would have a paper due at the end of the semester. I mentioned that you would need to choose to read either The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli or The Art of War by Sun Tzu. Both books can be downloaded for free from iBooks or checked out from the UNA library. They can sometimes even be purchased from thrift stores if you are lucky.

So, what are you to do in this paper? First both books offer the reader insight into leadership and organizations where we might define the latter in terms of an army, a community, a political entity. Both may be viewed as dark treatises but both may also been seen as shining a light upon virtue in the sense that lessons can be learned, pitfalls avoided, and intellectualism and creativity encouraged. Many have read these books and just as many have commented on them. There is no shortage of discussions on the internet.

Please understand that I am not asking you to write a book review. Rather, I am asking you to write on each of the following points:

• What is the proper role of a leader and what are their obligations as such?
• What is the proper role of the follower and what are their obligations as such?
• What do these readings inspire in you as strategies to maintain the complex/formal organization as we have studied it this semester?
• Discuss in your paper, one additional point from your choice of book that you consider to be a valuable “takeaway”. Explain why it is important to you.

As you address these three points, you must draw quotes from the book that support your reasoning. You may draw information from published sources to support your rationale but you must prepare a reference page and cite those sources properly within your text.

This is to be an APA formatted paper. I expect to see a cover page, an abstract or executive summary, a Table of Contents, a properly formatted body of your written work, and a reference page/s.

I envision this paper being no longer than 10 double-spaced typed pages using a standard 11 or 12 point font with 1 inch left, right, top and bottom margins.

Escribe en desacuerdo sobre los roles de genero (Gender Roles). Point out how this leads to toxic masculinity (1 body palagraph) (promoting it), and sexism (2nd body paragraph). Essay must be approximately 550 words. Use las proposiciones, las palabras de tiempo, metaforas y comparaciones y los tiempos de pasado, las palabras conectoras, etc.

This is a collaborative discussion in which you will share your initial findings. Provide a short overview of your company and selected challenges, and be sure to include information that your peers would need to know to assess your findings. List and briefly describe the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that are the focus of your analysis. Why are they the most important? Which strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats did you choose not to take into consideration, and why? What problems are you seeing, and what solutions are you considering for implementation?
