For the progress monitoring assignment, I first reviewed the students’ assessments data provide for the assignment, and using the provided decision tree guide I determined the students’ levels based on the FSP (RC, Maze, and WA) scores.

Once I had all that information entered I decided to create an extra column on the decision tree form

Some of the key reasons for the dismal profits are primarily due to lack of control, and inexperience from both Julie and Mary, the co-owners and managers of Café Bijoux. The reasoning behind this claim is that a business that is not seen profitable is usually not. In addition, a real restaurant sign is not up and visible. A sign is a major gateway to success in a busy congested market which sees more than eleven businesses surrounding a one km radius. However, Julie and Mary have been awaiting the funds to put up a sign, which has seen negative results due to lack of

Management is the process of leading people to achieve an objective and getting work done (Chelladurai, 1985, p.5). As stated by Chelladurai (1985) in order for the work to be done effectively, managers should know when to apply their different functions which include planning, organising, leading and controlling which Chelladurai (1985) mention as evaluating (p.5). These functions are connected and can be use concurrently as mention in Lussier & Kimball (2009, p. 11).

Sandwich Blitz has many strengths. The biggest is that they have eight stores in the area surrounding the hospital, three universities and many office complexes, all of which are high-traffic areas. Since they have eight stores the name is one that is recognized by customers, so they are confident in the product they will be receiving. Why go to a new business when you have one you already know? The business is owned by Dalman, who is knowledgeable in the area of food distribution and Sandwich Blitz’s menu and Lei, who was previously a certified public accountant. A focus on healthy foods to upscale customers is a strength but focusing on upscale customers also has its weaknesses which we will discuss later. These customers are willing to pay a higher price knowing that they will be receiving
