This module is about management planning. Planning is an important function in any organization.
Very recently, eBay’s CEO announced that in spite of the corporate philosophy that eBay’s auction services and PayPal were complimentary businesses that belonged under the same corporate umbrella they would, in 2015, each be managed as separate firms, each with its own CEO. This announcement was made shortly after Apple announced its Apple Pay. Apple Pay is not leveraging any new technologies. It’s simply Apple getting into the banking business, in a manner of speaking. In this assignment, please consider Apple Pay, PayPal and Bitcoin as potential methods for “paying for stuff” online. Do some internet research to inform yourself of these three methods. Summarize your sources (briefly!), make as many connections as you can to the assigned Module chapters. Based on this research, identify three criteria that you can use to assess each of the three in relation to each other (e.g., reputation, etc.). Describe your findings. Then discuss the implications of this article for managing work. Bracket these sections with thoughtful introductory and concluding comments.
A separate reference page (in APA format) should accompany the paper. This should also include the textbook. Be sure to cite references when used in the paper. I grade this part heavily so use the web to find a brief guide to using the APA style. There is no reason to lose valuable grading points on minor stuff like writing and style violations. Once source of APA is http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/.
Some elements I grade for:
Number and quality of linkages made between the article and the chapters (this is the most important!)
Title page is optional, but a name and title is mandatory
APA style for citations and references
Quality of article selected (blogs or superficial articles will receive little credit)
Introduction and conclusion
Appropriate use of headings
Single-spaced paper, double-space between paragraphs (double-check your paragraph settings)
One-to-two page paper (more, with quality, equals higher grade)
No first- (I, me, we) or second-person (you, your) perspectives
I can only open Word-compatible files. Sending the wrong file in the first place will make your paper late if I have to request a compatible file later. Double check submissions to avoid penalties!
