Students in professional master’s programs and executive development programs are typically viewed as “evolving professionals” who leverage their learning experience in their workplace environment. Given the wealth of theoretical knowledge, a typical learning experience would be to gain a basic understanding a few classic theories, but seldom see how those theories inform practice in an actual organizational context. The assignment described here attempts to bridge the theory-practice divide and build competencies to more fully interpret practical organizational problems through a theory lens.
