Give an overview of the organization including its corporate mission and objectives, its size, location(s), and operations and strategies, and how it has impacted people
There will be an individual research project and reading assignments designed to help you apply the concepts that you are learning in this class in a real world situation. The project will focus on management strategies, ethics and social responsibility (including environmental issues, intentional use of inferior materials to build, etc). Each student is required to choose a particular large real estate firm or any major company in the construction, architectural or
energy industry. Give an overview of the organization including its corporate mission and objectives, its size, location(s), and operations and strategies, and how it has impacted people and the immediate and external environments. Identify its major market(s), clients or customers, and the various environmental forces and ethical issues affecting its operation.
Suggest better ways of successfully managing/operating the organization in a socially responsible and profitable manner. The research project must be well documented in a type- written report form of between 10 – 15 double-spaced pages (excluding the title page, the table of contents and any appendices). Your documented project report will be assessed based on originality and relevance, grammatical expression, spelling, design (including the overall packaging of your report), and timeliness of submission. Any plagiarism will be
seriously penalized.
