Main Task: Compare Two Chapters, Adhering to the Northcentral Academic Integrity Policy
For this activity, read the two chapters listed in the Activity Resource section (Krames,J. A. (2003) Chapters 2 & 5). Each chapter relates to a successful, innovative business professional. You will be asked to discuss their journeys as practitioners and their contributions. Prepare a brief, 6-7 page paper in which you compare and contrast the two chapters. Address the following in your paper:
- Identify each business professional and briefly describe their main contributions to the field.
- Discuss the resistance that each encountered in presenting and furthering their research, ideas, or programs.
- Discuss any similarities you see in their professional stories.
- Note how each one differed.
- Finally discuss what factor(s) you think (environmental, professional, personal) may have impacted their success.
Keep your paper within the suggested length (writing in a concise manner is one aspect of scholarly writing); what is critical in this assignment is that you write clearly, paraphrase correctly, and use citations and references appropriately. Your paper will be submitted to a text-matching service to see how well you were able to discuss these ideas in your own words using appropriate citations.
