Each team member will contribute to each section below by providing information from the perspective of the role s/he is assuming for this case. However, while each team member contributes to each section, the finished product should flow seamlessly as if it is the work of one cohesive unit.

Assigne Role – Organizational Culture and Ethics : This role analyzes situations from a perspective of the organizational culture and the commitment (or lack thereof) to ethics/social responsibility. How do these things affect/influence the situations presented in the case? Potential solutions should be developed in line with the organizational culture and its commitment to ethics.

The main deliverable for this section is a combined or comprehensive TOWS Matrix.

SWOT should be substantiated through research which highlights the relevant and critical factors from the Situational, External, and Internal Analyses. Then each team member should develop one (1) strategy point for each TOWS section. Final information, along with strategies, should be presented in one TOWS Matrix.
