Video of Professor going over it https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VCXZhyfMlqvYFkcVD…
PARTI: Identify a critical problem this section is worth and it should be about one to two paragraphs in length.
1. Identify a critical problem facing your organization. Try to frame this problem in terms of strength, weakness, opportunity, or threat
• For example, “A critical problem facing USF is how to deal with the threat of budget cuts imposed by the State of Florida”
• Be specific in describing the problem and why it is critical to your organization
PART II: Develop three strategy alternatives this section should be between five and seven pages in length.
1. What do you see as plausible strategy alternatives to the critical problem you identified in Part I? Describe at least three alternatives; each should be discussed in detail and address different stakeholder perspectives.
• Your strategy alternatives could take the form of the 11 general strategy types we discussed in class (horizontal integration, product development, etc.), but they do not necessarily need to take this form.
• For example, “The first strategy that USF should consider to address the threat of budget cuts is to increase tuition revenues by developing new degree programs. This constitutes a product development strategy.”
• How would each strategy alternative affect stakeholders such as employees, shareholders, and customers?
2. What would be the implications of each strategy alternative? Describe any ethical implications associated with each strategy.
• Consider the implications of each strategy for local and global communities, including things like working conditions in the supply chain, environmental concerns, etc.
3. Which strategy do you recommend and why?
• Of the three strategies you developed, recommend one and thoroughly describe why that strategy is preferable to the other two.
4. As implications of your recommended strategy, what are the actions needed in the next year for each function in the company: Marketing, Finance, Human Resource, Technology, Operations, etc.?
• Describe how your recommended strategy would impact at least three functional areas.
All parts should be double-spaced, using 12 point Times New Roman font. Please be in DOC or PDF form,

The first portion of the project is listed below:
Think of your favorite musician/band/group. You are going to do some research on this person/band/group.
With your chosen musician/band/group, you are going to create a biographical essay over that person/band/group. In your essay, you will need to cover the following:
-
Who is the person/band/group
-
Dates (Birth-Death)
-
Where/when were they born
-
Where/when did they die
-
-

-
-
You will need to cite, both in-text and bibliographical, any sources you use for this project.
For the second part, you will be given the task of listening to the works of your chosen musician/band/group.
Using Apple Music, Spotify, Pandora, etc., you will need to find five (5) albums by your chosen musician/band/group and listen to two or three tracks from each one. Using concrete musical vocabulary, you will need to discuss their general use of the elements of music (melody, harmony, pitch, rhythm, timbre/tone color, texture, form, dynamics). Think of these questions to help guide your discussion; these are not the only questions you should answer, come up with your own:
-
How do they manipulate the elements to evoke emotions?
-
Do they use the elements in complex ways?
-
Are their melodies memorable?
-
Do they have some “go-to” things in their music when it comes to their characteristic sound?
-
Do the albums sound similar?
It would help if you also listed the albums and tracks you are referring to. I would encourage you to be very specific with timings in the tracks as well.
The more deeply you listen, the more successful you will be with the assignment.
