management and Strategy outside of the assigned course textbook, thus broadening their
understanding of Strategic Management and how the principles are applied in the real business
world.
a. an INTRODUCTION (a statement of the purpose of the report and what will be covered)
b. BOOK SUMMARY (what is the purpose of the book, and what are the key points in the book
with examples)
c. IDENTIFY three things you learned from reading the book that you did not previously know
about Strategy or management. Explain each and discuss why each is important to understand
as a manager. How can you, as a manager, use each one to become a more effective
manager?
d. SUMMARY and CONCLUSIONS- summarize the paper’s key points and your conclusions
from reading the book (one or two paragraphs).
The paper should have a COVER PAGE. This paper does not require additional outside
references but a reference page for the book selected. An ABSTRACT is required. All other
APA format requirements must be met. HEADINGS should be used for each report section,
including one for your three key learnings.
