Pedro is jogging in the park in his neighborhood and notices signs posted on trees. The next time he passes by one of the signs, he decides to take a breather and read what is being posted. The sign says “Lost Dog” and has a picture and name of the dog. The sign says, “I’ll pay $750 to anyone who returns my lost dog” and also provides the phone number and email address of the owner. Pedro takes a screen shot of the posted note.

When Pedro gets home, he shows the screen shot to his friend Briana and Briana then asks Pedro to text her that screen shot. Briana and Pedro agree that if either of them find the dog and return it to the owner, they would split the reward 50/50. It just so happens that Briana finds the dog and follows the instructions (exactly as specified on the reward sign) to return the dog and collect the reward. When she delivers the dog back to the owner, the owner of the dog was curious how Briana how she knew of the reward. Briana mentioned her friend Pedro showed her the posted note. The owner said that since she did not directly know about the reward sign, as this is now secondhand knowledge, they did not have a contract and refused to pay her the $750. Briana then sues the owner of the dog.

In completing this discussion post, please address whether there was a contract between Briana and the owner of the dog and why? Be specific and detailed. Just providing there was or was not a contract is not sufficient.

1) Book Review Paper
Objective: To give you a more detailed flavor of a particular investment philosophy/style, of an area of investments, or of a historical period from an investment perspective. You will be expected to give a 5-minute oral review in class. Preclear the book with me so that we can minimize duplication. If you have reviewed a book for me in a previous class, you must review a different book. The paper should be 5 to 10 pages long and include:

1) a descriiption and analysis of what the book covers,
2) how the author’s process and recommendation compare to academic theories like the efficient market hypothesis or capital asset pricing model,
3) your views on the strengths and weaknesses of the book (feel free to disagree with much of the book as one of the goals of the course is to have you understand that the investment world is constantly changing and there is no “right” or “wrong.”)
4) a summary including whether this would be a good book for your fellow students to read.

Knowing what you know now, discuss how you would approach your own organizational ‘garbage can’. What would you view as the most important factor(s) in selecting the combination of problem and solution? Examine how this topic would impact your selection and matching of problem and solution, and the specific types of innovations and change projects that would be supported/not supported by the factor. When writing your response, be sure to include Darnall and Preston’s perspectives from Chapter 2 of your text.

Also, in your post you should consider these topics:

The organization itself; its innovation culture, change culture, and diversity within
The leaders, followers, and champions that are present
The breadth of impact and the knowledge transfer requirements, including stickiness of knowledge
The potential costs and benefits
