Description
Assignment Option A (Preferred):
For this task, you will have the opportunity to use the professional social media platform LinkedIn to research current trends in the incorporation of technology in businesses today. Additionally, you will incorporate components of technological advancement in your analysis by illustrating these changes.

To begin, you will need to select a company from the approved list below:

Once you have identified the company you will research, find their page on LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a powerful social media platform that allows businesses and individuals to connect globally within a professional setting. Determine which pieces of information your chosen company provides or advertises online that provides insight into its current business trends with technology.

- Explain current trends in technology as it relates to your chosen company. How does your company portray its organizational culture to connect with others via social media?
- Analyze the role globalization plays in the incorporation of technology in your chosen company.
