Professor's Instruction: Compose a 8-12 page paper on one of the management theorists and his or her theory. Pick one of the theorists who is discussed either in your textbook or on the class website or on discussion board. Be sure to cite references where needed and include a bibliography of your sources. I am expecting 10-12 sources for a paper of this nature. Be sure to consult and use the stylesheet of your choice (APA, MLA, Chicago, etc.) This assignment will be graded by its subject content, grammar, and citation/bibliography style and substance.
