The project assigned will assist you with synthesizing your prior knowledge with the new knowledge you have gained during the class.

The objective of this assignment is for you to begin thinking strategically so you can continue on your journey of becoming an effective leader for any organization.

Special note:

This assignment must be your own work and based on your knowledge of the organization you have chosen. Academic dishonesty - plagiarism, copying of someone else's work is NOT be tolerated. This degree program uses TurnItIn, which finds text that matches other sources. Changing a company name, people, dates, using alternative phrases or words, does NOT constitute YOUR original work. Therefore, pick an organization you are familiar with AND that will allow you to complete ALL portions of the SWOT analysis.

You should add a "References" (APA) page at the end of your document to list all resources that you used to prepare the project/paper.
