Real World OB: this paper will provide you with an opportunity to integrate the concepts you have learned in the readings and lectures, and to apply these theoretical ideals to a “real world” situation. Pick one of the topics we covered in class (for example, decision making, ethics, teamwork, etc.) that you have encountered in the “real world”. This paper should not be a detailed report of everything that happened your specific situation that you selected. Rather, the paper should focus on issues such as: • Briefly describe what happened in the situation, the key events, and try to frame them in terms that we discussed in class
• What did you learn about yourself in this experience?
• What did you learn about organizational behavior from this situation?
• Do the concepts presented in lectures or readings enrich your understanding of the situation you picked, its outcome, or your own style?
• What would you do the same or differently in the future based on your learnings from this class?
