In order to bring current examples of strategic issues and problems into the class, each student 
will present a current business strategies report.  The report should be drawn from one specific 
news article in the business press and should deal with a topic within the last 12 months. The 
article(s) should highlight the strategic issues facing a particular firm or industry and should be 
directly related to specific topics of this course. Your oral report should include the following points: 
1. A very brief review of the key facts of the article- what it’s about; why it’s interesting; why it’s important. Also, identification and explanation of the key course concepts, tools, topics that this report relates to.
You should be prepared to present, not read, a 3-5 minute (Maximum) summary of your report .
