Best Place to Start:

Remember the Following:
Froeb’s forensic rules:
- Who made the bad decision?
- Did the decisionmaker have enough information to make the right decision?
- Did the decisionmaker have the incentive to make the right decision?
Remember Froeb’s Problem Solving Tips:
- Avoid the temptation to think of the problem as belonging to the employee, think about the problem as belonging to the organization?
- To solve the problem, look ahead and reason back, what caused the bad decision

References and Referencing
Where to find the story of a business: Good sources for a current unfolding story are in fact news and business journals. While this may be a starting point, remember they are only reporting on what they have heard. You must go to the primary source for evidence. Articles will always tell you the source of the story, go there and verify. Summarize and cite. Make sure the reader never has to ask the question, which source was used here. Remember, every fact must have an in-text cite as to the source.
Reference and Citation
You must list all references on which relied, even if it was from a previous course? The reader should never have to wonder which reference was the source. In-text citation is required even when you broadly summarize any work. In-text citation is required whenever you give a fact.
Reference Quality
You need 5 academic quality references. I am not going to demand that at least one be in the past 6 months, but remember you are to deal with a recent event. Academic quality: either primary source, i.e. directly from the company, directly from a government agency, or, a peer reviewed publication.
