Read the article:"A Real-Time Case Analysis" at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330324062 and then perform a case analysis that covers the following questions:

• In your words, what was Volkswagen's Strategy in 2018 initially announced 2008?
• What are the most important critical elements of Volkswagen's Strategy 2018? Where did they fail?
• To execute Strategy 2025 (which supersedes Strategy 2018) in response to an emissions scandal, do you believe what was suggested in the article is the best approach? Then, supported by credible resources, discuss why it is the best approach or propose a better approach.
• Discuss whether the overarching vision driving Volkswagen's Strategy 2025 is clear and whether their approaches will help them achieve it. Why or why not?
• Are the initiatives designed to transform certain areas of Volkswagen's core business achievable that are outlined in their strategy 2025? Why or why not?

Read theGeneral Guidelines for Case Studies

General Guidelines for Case Studies A case study is a short description ofa real business situation. Analyzing case studies gives you the opportunity to apply concepts you're learning to real business problems. Cases are generally written for several types of analysis. Usually, there is not a "right or wrong" answer. Rather, cases provide a vehicle for you to demonstrate your understanding and ability to apply course concepts and theories. You must use appropriate sources {properly cited) to support your position. Check your analysis by assessing how well it demonstrates your subject knowledge. If your answer relies solely on your 'impressions' ofthe topic, it is likely that the analysis is not your best effort. Simply answering the questions which are part of the case is not enough; consider the questions to be clues to the important concepts and facts. You are strongly encouraged to use the following outline so that your analysis is organized appropriately: 1. Identify both the key issues and the underlying issues. In identifying the issues, you should be able to connect them to the business principles which apply to this situation. 2. Discuss the facts which affect these issues. The case may have too much information. In your discussion, you should filter the information and discuss those facts which are pertinent to the issues identified above. 3. Discuss your tentative solution to the problem and how you would implement your solution. What actions would you propose to respond to the situation, based on the knowledge you have gained in this course? You should draw on knowledge gained in your readings, experience and coursework {in this course and others) to support your response. Be sure to properly cite references in APA format. You should also draw on other references such as business periodicals and relevantjournals. Remember that an analysis is more than simply a summary of the Case Study. 4. Discuss followup and contingency plans. How will the organization know that your proposed solution is working? What should they do if it does not work
