Case Study Resources:
Usually business writing incorporates APA format. Case length is not an important consideration in my grading strategy.
The questions posed are meant to guide you in developing an analytical framework that you must present in a case report. Usually you can incorporate your responses in sections C and D described below. I cannot prescribe a single outline or template, but I can identify “building blocks” that are essential to building a logical structure that will stand up to critical scrutiny, and serve as a useful guide to presenting the results of your in depth case analysis. Essential building blocks and structure are as follows:
Executive Summary
Section A. Introduction and Overview of the Situation
Section B. Assumptions and Methods
Section C. Business Impacts
Section D. Descriptions of Sensitivity, Risks, Successes, Failures, Contingencies and Strategies
Section E. Conclusions and Recommendations
