Supply chain integration is a major contributing factor to organizational success. The goal of supply chain integration is alignment within the supply chain. As a business leader, how can you achieve greater supply chain integration with suppliers and customers?
Amazon is a prime example of a company that has successfully managed its supply chain to achieve growth and profitability. Research the progression of Amazon’s supply chain integration. Write a 1,000-1,250-word paper that address the following questions:
How do sales and operations planning in supply chain integration impact the company overall? What would Amazon’s medium- and long-term forecast inform the operations management department? How do logistics, transportation modes, and warehouse locations impact Amazon’s competitiveness?
How does global sourcing and procurement impact the overall effectiveness of the supply chain? What are the benefits and challenges that have occurred when outsourcing logistic and other functions?
How has Amazon successfully leveraged e-commerce strategies to promote supply chain integration and boost sales and growth for the organization? Which strategies have been particularly effective and why?
Do you feel that Amazon sets an example for other companies to model regarding supply chain integration? Be sure to explain your rationale. Consider the ethical implications in your response.
Incorporate five to seven resources to support your paper.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

In her article, “Craving the Other,” Soleil Ho asks the rhetorical question, “If a dish hasn’t been eaten or reimagined by a white person, does it really exist?”  (This is the final sentence of the paragraph that begins, “American chefs like to talk fancy . . .”)  Following the guidelines and rubric for these reading response assignments, compose a short essay in which you explain the rhetorical significance and function of this question in the article and how it relates to Ho’s main idea or thesis.  In your response, comment on your opinion of the effectiveness of this particular example of Ho’s use of rhetoric.

For your proposed study, (Essay will be provided to read) answer the following questions:
State one of your research hypotheses (if you have a research question rather than a hypothesis, convert your question into a hypothesis). What is the null hypothesis (Ho)?
What are the IVs and DVs?
Is H1 directional or non-directional? Why?
What would be the outcome of the statistical test of your hypothesis if you committed a Type I error? What would be the outcome of a Type II error?
Is this hypothesis posing a difference question or an associational question? Explain.
Using Figure 19.2 (p. 279) in your textbook, identify the appropriate statistical test of your hypothesis. Explain how you derived this test (what steps did you follow?).

Please choose one of the following questions to respond to for this discussion board. Remember to use a direct quote from the text as evidence for your analysis, or you will receive half-credit on the assignment :
1) Using thematic analysis, please evaluate the central theme or minor theme, sometimes called a subteme, from either “Mystic” or “Reflections of Spring.” You do not have to write on both texts. Some sample themes include: memory, experience, knowledge, the title of the poem “Mystic,” guilt. (Not all listed will be found in both texts.)
2) Using plot analysis, please evaluate one element of plot from “Reflections of Spring.” You do not have to perform a complete plot analysis, just choose one or two of the five elements to evaluate. Also, be sure to argue how the textual element creates the plot point–do notjust summarize the story. In other words, why is the event significant?
3) Using symbolic analysis, please evaluate one major or minor symbol from either “Mystic” or “Reflections of Spring.” You do not have to write on both texts. Some sample symbols include: apples, rice pancakes, the symbolic nature of seasons. (Not all listed will be found in both texts.)
Please Note: 1) Theme is not just a topic, but what the text suggests about that topic (revenge is a good move towards theme, but what does the text specifically say, or suggest, about revenge–its unique conception about that theme). 2) Symbols must be defined as either private, incidental, or traditional. 3) Plot analysis does not just describe the details of the text, but argues why those details provide a strong element or representation of plot.
Follow-up responses should do more that state “I agree” or “I disagree.” Extend on or critique the analysis of your classmates.
Finally, remember that literary analysis: 1) makes interpretive claims; 2) that are debatable; 3) that are supported with evidence from the text(s) (this must include direct quotes from the text); 4) that argue for a thesis about the text (this will probably fall into your topic sentence); and 5) that explore the complexity of the text. 
And remember that these are formal academic assignments. “I” and “you” should not be used in initial posts (“I” and “you” are fine for follow-up posts as they are less formal), nor should you announce intent in the topic sentence: for example, do not write, “In this discussion board I will discuss “Ysrael”; or, “The text I chose to review for this assignment is “The South.” Consider your claim, interpretation, or argument in the topic sentence.
