Assignment Task

 

Managing in Asia –
Please choose ONE of the two questions to write your essay on.

It is important that your essay has a logical flow and good structure. Make good use of appropriate subheadings, write in coherent and integrated paragraphs, and avoid grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. Please support your analysis by using the articles covered, class discussions, presentation slides, and references from outside (as necessary).
It is not necessary to conduct additional research to answer the questions, but it is important to draw on the subject contents (i.e., cases, articles, lectures and class discussions) and provide clear arguments/examples to support your analysis. Generation of novel insights based on your personal understanding of the subject contents and critical reflection are also important for a well-crafted essay.
