364 Cyber Software Management Plan
A management
plan is a model that demonstrates how an organization operates on a day-to-day
basis as well as over the long run. A management plan is a report that
includes numerous sections that cover various aspects of the business.
In this
assignment students will take the role of the Vice President of Operation
creating a mini-management plan that focuses on those aspects of the business
related to planning and organizing. As Vice President of Operations,
Joseph Jackson, the leader of Cyber Software, Inc., has asked you to help him
solve his organizational problems. This mini-management plan is a
professionally written document that will be given to Joseph Jackson. In
writing the plan, you must use the terminology learned in the course.
Since Joe Jackson is quite knowledgeable, you are not defining terms using a
dictionary but you will explain and describe concepts and ideas so Joseph
Jackson understands what you mean, why the ideas are important to the business
and how to implement the proposed plan. The plan is not one in which the
Vice President of Operations tells Joseph Jackson that he should do this
or do that or he needs to or will do this or do that but one that is presented
in an action-oriented manner. Students are expected to make connections
between the facts of the case study and concepts, theories, and ideas presented
in the course readings.
The
mini-management plan will structure the entire company and will cover Joseph
Jackson’s organization’s mission, vision, structure and culture.
Students
will read the case study provided and respond to the following requirements.
