What internal and external conditions need to be addressed in the strategic management process of Amazon going forward?

Description

Recently in the news, there have been reports on the success of Amazon growing into the largest online retailer. With growth and success, leaders are often challenged to remain strategic in their approaches to evolve through change. Based on what you know from the news reports (research Amazon for more information, and cite the source), how should the company move forward to remain strategic in the online retail environment? What is at risk with the current founder and CEO remaining at the helm or is it time for a new approach? What internal and external conditions need to be addressed in the strategic management process of Amazon going forward?

How can learning about the analysis of qualitative and quantitative data be useful in your career?

Professional and Personal Reflection

For the third and final component of your capstone, you will write an essay in which you discuss the process and outcomes of this project, as well as how your coursework culminated in the capstone project. This may include discussions of unforeseen problems or obstacles, as well as any surprises. The essay should also discuss your identified strengths and problems that you encountered while completing the project. Finally, the essay will examine how the capstone project will be useful in the job market or in furthering your education. You should envision this component as a personal reflection on the capstone and your experience in the Operations Management program as a whole. For instance, relative to the capstone, you could discuss what you did (or intended to do), and then consider what worked well, what challenges you faced, and what you would do differently to make your experience better. In reflecting on your time here at SNHU, you might discuss where you started, where you are now, and where you see yourself going. Note that this component is not about evaluating the capstone itself but rather your experience within the capstone project. Some of the issues that you could address in this final component of this capstone may include: • Overall, what was your capstone experience like? • Reflect on the significance of the capstone in relation to your own experience at SNHU. • What connections do you see between your capstone and your academic program? • How can learning about the analysis of qualitative and quantitative data be useful in your career? • The SWOT allows you to analyze internal and external factors. How can this tool be helpful after graduation?

identify the overall value added if the solution is implemented. For instance, the solution may be developed to increase service quality for customers or to increase revenue, increase product quality, and so on.

Two:

Project Planning Outline

After identifying necessary improvements in Component One, you will pick one solution to expand upon in a professional project plan. Here, you will develop an abbreviated project management plan (PMP) that showcases the essential steps you think would be effective in implementing your proposed solution. Based on your SWOT analysis, your abbreviated PMP should be presented in an outline format with proposed tasks needed for implementation that adhere to industrydriven project management principles. • What tasks are needed in order to implement the proposed solution in the organization? Each task must be written out with thorough detail and should be organized chronologically, based on logical and appropriate start and end times for each task. • In closing, identify the overall value added if the solution is implemented. For instance, the solution may be developed to increase service quality for customers or to increase revenue, increase product quality, and so on.

Develop potential solution(s) addressing the identified weaknesses and threats that are listed in the SWOT that would add value to the organization with minimal risk.

Prompt

You will select an organization in operations management that is currently facing competition from other service industries in the same area (e.g.., Verizon vs. Sprint, Apple vs. Dell, Longhorn Steakhouse vs. Outback Steakhouse, Chrysler vs. Chevrolet, etc.). After laying the foundation for understanding the selected organization by analyzing data from both quantitative and qualitative sources, you will then apply continuous improvement techniques for identifying potential solutions by developing a SWOT analysis on the selected organization, ultimately contributing to its long-term planning and sustainability. You will then develop potential solution(s) for addressing the identified weaknesses or threats (outlined in the SWOT) that would add value to the organization with minimal risk. This will also be accompanied by a project planning outline that will highlight how and when the proposed solution will be introduced, which should adhere to common industry-driven project management principles. Finally, you will reflect on your journey through the Operational Management program and how you plan to position yourself professionally through a third component in the form of a personal and professional reflection. Capstone Component One: SWOT Analysis For the first of three capstone components, you will develop a comprehensive, professional SWOT analysis that will help form long-term planning and sustainability strategies, outlined in a project management plan (PMP). First, you will want to lay the foundation for conducting your SWOT analysis by comprehensively describing the selected organization and discussing the issues or problems that the organization is facing. Overall, it is important to include information that is pertinent for comprehending the organization and its problems. It is up to you to establish a robust context for understanding and responding to the organization’s need(s). Part of establishing a solid framework for analyzing the organization is incorporating information that supports why the problem(s) exists and how it is valid. For instance, based on your chosen organization, you should include both a quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis that speak to the organization’s need and identified problem. After conducting a SWOT analysis, you will bring your analysis together by synthesizing the results and identifying potential solutions. The following sections should be included: I. Strengths: Identify the strengths of the organization. II. Weaknesses: Identify the weaknesses of the organization. III. Opportunities: Identify potential opportunities that the organization should explore in order to expand. IV. Threats: Identify external factors that could potentially negatively affect the organization. V. Improvements: Develop potential solution(s) addressing the identified weaknesses and threats that are listed in the SWOT that would add value to the organization with minimal risk.

Introduction (approximately 100 words) 1.1 As with any assignment you should commence with an introduction to signpost the intent of the assignment to the reader. 1.2 A statement of confidentiality should be provided which includes baby, parents, staff, unit and hospital. Provide a scenario/event on an aspect of care provision to an infant requiring intensive care and/or his/her family (approximately 100 words) 2.1 A succinct description of the scenario should be provided with a clear rationale provided, linking to your topic choice. The themes identified from your topic need to be identified and realistic in number to allow in-depth critical discussion within the allowed word limit (approximately 100 words) 3.1 It may be your topic literature search results in a large number of themes to potentially discuss. However it is important that as you have only 2000 words for this assignment, that you limit the number of themes discussed to enable in-depth critical discussion/analysis and comment on the merits of the literature. Depending on topic choice, this could be as little as one theme up to 3 three themes maximum. 3.2 Please seek advice from module leader to determine the number of themes that can be realistically discussed. Main body of your essay (approximately 1500 words) This section must address the module specific learning outcome below. 4.1 Learning outcome 3: critically discuss the range of evidence and research underpinning the care of the intensive care baby and family In other words you need to critically discuss and analyse your chosen topic/themes with evidencebased literature and critically comment on the merits (strengths and limitations) of the research used and consider its implications to neonatal practice. Prior to discussing your themes it may be necessary to provide a context for the topic which may include definitions and statistics, in other words set the scene. Within each theme research literature should be used to critically structure and underpin discussion. As discussed in your ‘reading literature critically’ workshop, your presentation of the research literature should include the type of study, type and number of patients, families or units (sample size and characteristics), how data was collected and findings. Strengths and limitations of the study considered should be supported by research methods literature. Implications of the literature to practice should be considered. 5. Conclusion (approximately 200 words) 5.1 Care given in scenario/event should be evaluated in light of the literature reviewed and personal learning should be identified. 5.2 Briefly discuss whether the care given in your scenario was evidence based from the literature reviewed and discuss your personal learning from completing this review and how you could use the knowledge gained from exploring the research literature to improve and/or enhance your future practice and possibly of your team/Unit. 5.3 Provide a summary of your main discussion points.
