Case Analysis

Read the Chapter 6 Management in Action case study "Putting AutoZone into Drive" on p. 185-186.（See Attach）

Then analyze and answer each of the questions in the case study.  It is not necessary for you to type the question itself, but you should number your answers to correspond to the question you are answering.  Your assignment should be 3-4 pages long (excluding cover page, attachments, etc.), double-spaced, using 12-point font and 1-inch margins.     

Keep in mind that, while there are no "absolutely correct" answers for these questions, this is not an opportunity for opinion alone.  Grading will reflect your reasoning and critical thinking skills, your ability to integrate what you have assimilated from material presented in the textbook and other learning materials, the clarity of your response and its appearance.  

If your paper integrates information from published sources and/or you build on the work of others, you must be careful not to plagiarize. You can find information about plagiarism at the Plagiarism.org website; a link to this website has been provided under the "Resources" tab in the main menu of the course.  

Please also see the rubric posted under the "Resources" tab in the main menu of the course for additional guidelines on grading. 

To submit your assignment, click on the link above.  Scroll down to Section 2 ("Assignment Materials") and then click "Browse My Computer" to find and attach your .doc or .docx file.  Write any comments to your instructor in the "Comments" box.  Click "Submit".  After you submit your report, you can tell it has been received by clicking on "My Grades" in the main menu of the course.  You will see a "!" in the grade book.  After your instructor grades the assignment, you will see a score instead of the "!"

Please note:  Your assignment must be submitted as a .doc or .docx file.  If you fail to do this, your instructor may be unable to open or grade your assignment.
