 Assignment 1 The following topic(s) will demonstrate what the discussion is about, but feel free to branch off or expand on the topics. In addition to this discussion, you will be asked to craft a 150 word reflection on what you have learned through this conversation and post it to the Reflection Journal. The more active you are in this part of the discussion, the more you will have to draw from in your reflection, so get involved, be active, help out your classmates when they need it, and, most of all, enjoy the conversation.In the book  in chapter 11, Schulz talks about “how businesses fail because its leader could not execute”.

Consider the following to help you gather these sources:Create a literature review, incorporating each of your references (minimum of five), tying them to each other and to the thesis of your project in a single narrative. You should cite each source in the body of your literature review  in a references page at the end of your paper.Your literature review should be arranged in the following way:: As well as accurate in-text citations, your literature review must contain complete and correct APA citations for every source in a references page at the end of your review.  Assigment 3  This week, through our readings and discussion, we have looked at the importance of reflection, not just in working in groups, but also in our personal endeavors.
