This is not intended to be an in-depth, exhaustive analysis, but rather serve as an opportunity to apply these two analytical tools to an organization that we have in common. ?

When posting your thoughts, you want to encourage feedback and involve your classmates as much as possible. In the end, we want to be responding and feeding off each others postings. If you use a source, be sure to discuss it in your own voice. Make sure to cite correctly and use quotation marks when necessary to ensure you do not violate Academic Integrity.
