Research in the fields of Management and Leadership can be very thought-provoking - sometimes to the point of changing your whole outlook on something. I would like you to see if there is an article on the following website that provokes you into thinking differently about an area of management. Go to the following website:  http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/#, then find the drop-down menu "Topics" and click on "Management" and "Leadership". From here, review the research articles within the past 6 months, and choose one that discusses a topic we have covered so far in this course. For your first post, discuss the following questions. Be sure to cite the article.

 

• Date of Article: Must be within the past 6 months.
• Topic: What is the topic of your current event as it relates to the reading in this course?
• Content: Use paragraph format to discuss the article and how it relates to the material we have covered in this course. Make sure you use your own words. Discuss the following:
  • Give a brief description of the research conducted and the conclusion reached.
  • State how the issue in the article applies to the material we have covered.
  • Discuss something you found surprising/thought-provoking from the article.
  • Give an example of how this research can be used in an organization.
