Assignment #$1$: Business Process Idea $($Week $2)$

Purpose:

This initial assignment is in actuality the first phase of a four$-$part assignment series that comprises the majority of the assessments for this class. The assignments build on each. This step is asking for students to select a business process that they can improve using the process described in the course. By completing the assignment, students will in conjunction with future assignments demonstrate an understanding of how to create a framework to improve a process using tools learned in the course. Instructions:

Stage $1$: Business Process Idea

After reviewing the class materials from weeks one and two, students should identify three different ideas to improve a process that is in desperate need of improvement. The ideas identified should come from a work or organizational experience $($PTA$,$ Volunteer job, Church, etc.$).$ In a short, one$-$page paper identify the process and discuss why the process needs improvement. Be sure to define all the terms $($e$.$g$.$ process, improvement$)$ needed to justify the conclusion you have drawn. All conclusions must be supported by the class material or relevant sources from the UMGC online library. This process will have to be used throughout the class so it is incumbent upon you to get approval from the instructor before proceeding to your assignments.

Submit your business process idea in the Assignment Folder by the end of Week $2.$
