Management Information System Presentation
Description
Imagine you are a consultant to your organization, and you have just completed the research and assessment necessary to guide the organization through its selection and implementation of a new management information system known as ClickUp () a task management platform.
THERE ARE 2 PRODUCTS REQUIRED
(*1*) Prepare a 15-20 Slide PowerPoint presentation (with a cover slide) to the Board (or an equivalent group of senior executives) where you provide them with your recommendations for moving forward.
This presentation consists of a PowerPoint slide show, as well as the text of your accompanying oral presentation to your audience. In your presentation you need to do four things:
1. Briefly recap to your audience why Amazon needs this new system.
2. When describing your recommendation, provide the reasoning behind your decision by drawing on supporting research in the fields of systems theory, organizational leadership, and MIS options. Include here information about how various entities in Amazon interact with one another, and how they interact with the outside environment.
3. Create a broad implementation plan. You do not want to overwhelm your audience with details but you want to provide enough structure that there is clarity on what the disruption to business as usual will entail and how that will be parsed out. A projected time frame is essential. If appropriate, discuss any issues that may come up regarding resistance to change or resistance to learning new things.
4. Describe clearly, either woven in with your slides or as a separate section (i.e. a few slides devoted to only this topic) of the presentation, how you are considering constraints imposed by COVID-19 in your plan. These constraints include, but are not limited to: reducing mobility by allowing people to work from home instead of the office, reducing mobility by doing teaching, training, and learning virtually, reducing density where people are working in a face to face environment, providing PPE where necessary, redesigning the workplace to allow “capsules,” i.e. no equipment or tools are shared – each person uses their own computer, their own set of tools, their own set of stationery, their own chair, etc. to avoid cross-contamination, moving activities outdoors to prevent infection through re-circulated air.
(*2*) Create a separate handout that will serve as the narrative accompanying your slide presentation.
This handout is not a paper or an essay, but it needs to be written in a professional and polished style. It will be given to people who were not at your presentation.
Divide this handout into subsections, each subsection corresponding to one slide. Make your subheadings in this handout the number of the slide. You will have as many sections in your handout as you have slides in your presentation. The word length of any one section is up to you. Say what you need to say.
Each subsection will explain verbally what is presented on a slide. You may have a slide with just a picture, or just a graph, or a flowchart, but you may need to spend ten minutes or so of your presentation discussing what is on that slide. This handout is where you will verbally elaborate on what is visually presented to your audience on the screen in front of them. DO NOT restate in your narration what is already on the slide. Your audience can read what is on the slide. Your narration explains what you are trying to convey on your slide.
Use APA format for citations in this handout.
