Must post first.
What is your opinion on planning by professional planners vs. operational managers? Support your stance with a personal example (pro or con). Whatever your stance, end with a list of people in the organization who should be involved in planning within your organization.
In your replies, state clearly if you agree or not. Either way, provide a rebuttal — support the opposite stance that the original author (even if you didn’t originally choose that stance).

Using only the topics from this week, find a recent management news story that you found interesting. Share a link and provide an overview in your own words. State why you believe this current event is worth your classmates’ time to read it! Close with at least one counterpoint: something that you disagree with or could have been presented better.
Valid sources:
- Trade publications: Journals, White Papers, Web Posts, etc. from official organizations only.
- Business publications: Bloomberg Businessweek, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance, Inc., Forbes, Fortune, The Economist, Wired, Entrepreneur, Consumer Reports, etc.
- General Media: Trusted networks such as ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, BBC, etc.
DO NOT consider social media or blogs as your primary source.
In your replies, critique the original author’s value statement (“why it’s worth your classmates’ time to read it”) — is it a compelling argument? How could he/she sell their case better? Also critique their counterpoint. Was it insightful and well presented?
