Dear Class, as a quick reminder, please find below the question to address for submitting your Westlake Lanes case memo on Tuesday morning.

What should Shelby Givens do and why? In addressing this question, you should identify what options she is contemplating and provide arguments for and against each option. Before coming to a recommendation, explain your rationale for this choice.

In preparing your answer, try to consider issues related to different disciplines such as Accounting, Marketing, Strategy, Operations and OBHR. We appreciate that you have not covered specific theories for some of these disciplines, but are intentionally trying to push you to look at this question from multiple angles. As you progress in the MBA, you will learn more concepts to apply to future cases, but we wish to encourage the holistic nature of business analysis and decision making right from the beginning of the program.
