The question posed:
Based on the series of board room discussions, and in reference to your own thoughts and ideas do you believe that the Marx family will be able to make it in Australia? In your view what will be their biggest hurdles and challenges, and who do you see taking on the responsibility to ensure that they do not go back to Belorussia in disgrace. Finally, does the family have any advantages that they can leverage in their pursuit of the Australian dream?
Students should clearly answer three basic questions in the analysis: 1) Is this a realistic business ideas in today’s opportunity landscape? 2) Can the product or service be provided on a profitable basis? 3) if not, what is a viable alternative for the family?
In particular, students should answer the following questions:
Evaluate the ‘Empire of Giggle’ business opportunity in light of 3 out of 10 key themes of the entrepreneurial process discussed and expanded on in every week’s class and Board Room Meetings.
Discuss whether you agree or disagree with the Board Room recommendations for your chosen themes in relation to the business opportunity and provide theoretical evidence to support your position. Mere ‘gut feelings’ won’t count.
Make a recommendation on whether the ‘restaurant’ concept is as a matter of fact the most feasible opportunity for Marx family or whether they could consider an alternative opportunity. Discuss the opportunity in detail and validate it with theory and data.
Purpose:
The purpose of this individual assignment is as follows:
Demonstrate your understanding of the key theoretical constructs discussed throughout the course
Demonstrate the ability to synthesis these constructs highlighting the interdependencies that exist between all of them
Demonstrate your ability to adapt and apply these constructs in a “real world” scenario
To develop your research based skills
To develop your skills in critical thinking and analysis
To demonstrate your research reporting skills
Business Status Review of the Empire of Giggle
As stated the purpose of the assignment is to gain insights into the viability of the Marx family’s entrepreneurial dream, and to determine if they are on the right track. Your discussion will draw on the weekly boardroom deliberations which will in part form the basis of your narrative. These deliberations will be augmented on and expanded by your own research and inquiry into the key threads discussed weekly.
Your assignment will expand on any 3 of the following threads discussed in the semester.
The key threads discussed include:
Mind and Behavior
Ethical and Social Responsibility
Opportunity and Creativity
Pathways
Commercialization
Capital
Marketing
The Law
Planning
Intrapreneurship
It is decided that in the context of a 2000 word assignment, covering 3 concepts in depth is not only a practical outcome; it in itself will demonstrate your ability to analyse and adapt theory into a practical environment. However, notwithstanding the in depth exposition of three threads, it is expected that references, where appropriate are made to the other threads insofar as they may impact on the three key threads that you are discussing.
*Please note that in order for you to receive a good grade, you will need to adapt the theory to the scenario of the Marx family, support that with academic references and demonstrate YOUR analytical appreciation of the environment in which the Marx family finds itself. (Direct examples are encouraged to support your argument)
