Instructions

Write a 4-5 page business report where you provide the following:

Make any revisions to the three business problem statements you developed in Assessment 3 and state the specific problem for each of the following three areas: leadership, information systems, and marketing management. You will specify, “The specific problem is…”.

For each problem you developed, identify and discuss authoritative models and theories within scholarly and practitioner literature that can be used to further understand the problem.

For each problem, identify an applied framework (which can be based on a theoretical, conceptual, process, or developmental framework) and explain how the framework relates to the problem.

Using some of the common elements found in the models, theories, and frameworks, construct a mind map to illustrate logical relationships among frameworks for leadership, marketing management, and information systems.

You may wish to use the Creating Mind Maps activity in this assessment to make your mind map.

In your report, give a detailed explanation of the concepts and connections in your mind map.

Your report should include the following headings:
