6 3 assignment case report

Getting Started

For this summative assessment of the course, you will be writing a case report. There are several reasons behind this assignment. Probably the most important for you is that employers are looking for graduates who can complete and communicate successfully complex analyses. One without the other is “only a resounding gong or clanging cymbal” (1 Cor. 13:1, NIV). Writing this case report will also prepare you for your capstone course.

Your written report should convince the reader your recommended course of action will result in the optimum outcome for the organization. It should answer the questions of what, how, and why and follow this basic structure.

  1. Executive Summary – a brief summary of the current situation, your key recommendations, and expected outcomes.
  2. Introduction – a clear description of the key challenges or decisions to be addressed. A concise, focused problem statement will set the tone for the reader and operate as a guide for the remainder of the report.
  3. Analysis – identification, and diagnosis of events leading to the current situation and its need for resolution. This section will include all alternatives that are considered and outline the decision criteria for selection of the final recommendation.
  4. Action Plan – outlines a sequence of steps that must occur in order to execute your recommendation. Identify the resources needed to execute your plan and a timeline for implementation.
  5. Performance Plan – outlines the ways the organization will know the recommended action has accomplished its desired result. Includes metrics the organization might monitor to measure the outcome.
  6. Conclusion – return to the introduction and succinctly draw the case to a close based on your analyses and planning.
