You are required to submit a 5 to 7 page research paper on the topic listed above.
Find peer reviewed articles from online journals through the CUNY online library. You may access the library after logging into the main BlackBoard website.
The paper must include at least 2 academic citations from top management/business journals.
Articles from magazines such as Fortune, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, etc., are not acceptable.

You must include a reference list at the end of your paper and cite your sources throughout using APA standards. If you have any questions on this format, please let me know.
Copying material exactly or very closely from any source without using quotation marks and citing your source is plagiarism and will results in an automatic zero for that assignment. Your paper will be scanned to detect plagiarism.
Late submissions will result in point deduction.
