In the analysis, discuss the following areas:

• The organizational culture and the unique characteristics of the firm's work environment.
• Leadership and how the various concepts and leadership models discussed in the text are utilized in your firm's CEO and management team. Use an example.
• The organizational design and structure of the firm. Use an example.
• How the firm manages ethical issues, conflict, and managerial challenges. Managerial challenges, ethics, and conflicts. Each of these needs a paragraph. Start with Leadership at Chewy faces ethical issues, conflicts, and challenges like many other e-commerce companies. Then, go into e-commerce, then the policy...the next paragraph would be ethics, then conflicts, then challenges, and use an example.
• The firm uses both the characteristics of transactional and transformational leaders. Explanation about transactional and transformational leaders in Chewy E-Commerce Company.
• Your recommendations for the future of the company. How can key leaders of this firm improve in the next 5 years? Think about the pandemic, and that we're still in it. Strategic plans usually are five years, but they don't have to be. I like tailoring services...perhaps opportunity to have a retail shop? Perhaps opportunity to create their own products. Add more explanation. Please do not make recommendations on products or services you want the firm to produce. Rather focus on how the company's organizational climate, leadership, ethics, leadership development, and overall leadership environment should improve.

When discussing these concepts, be specific and use examples that detail how your analysis of the organization fits with the theories (especially transformational and transactional leadership) that were covered in this class. The focus of this paper should be on the leadership of the company and should incorporate what you've learned in this course.

• Bring in a little bit more on leadership first.
• What do they have in place for employees?
