Purpose:

This unit aims to give you an opportunity to combine many facets of your acquired MBA skills into the production of a high-quality research project.

Assignment 1 - the Topic Approval - is to ensure you have given sufficient thought to the topic you are choosing to base your research project on. You will ideally work with a group consisting of 2 or 3 class-mates. Your respective contributions will be governed by the Team Charter, which is a document you will produce at the same time as your Topic Approval submission. The Team Charter is to indicate, essentially, what roles will be played by each member of the team.

1. Explain the team’s agreed goals and timeline for completion (Due dates, meetings, milestones, deliverables from individuals)

2. Who is responsible for each activity?

3. What particular team-roles will each member contribute to the team? 

4. What are your team’s expectations regarding meeting attendance (being on time, leaving early, missing meetings, etc.)?

5. What process will team members follow if they have an emergency and cannot attend a team meeting or complete their individual work promised to the team (deliverable)?

6. What are your team’s expectations regarding the quality of team members’ preparation for team meetings?

7. What are your team’s expectations regarding team members’ ideas, interactions with the team, cooperation, attitudes, and team-member contributions in general?

8. How will your team ensure that members contribute as expected to the team and that the team performs as expected?

9. How will your team reward members who do well and how will you collectively manage members whose performance is below expectations?
