Article Critique 01
Requirements:
The purpose of this assignment is for you to practice reviewing articles that contribute to the
industry. The authors of these articles are researchers and professionals that have shared or
experimented with ideas that demonstrate potential to improve the industry. As a professional
in the industry, it is in your best interest to review the literature and trends within it. Doing so
provides you with the opportunity to read about what has been successful and how. Plus, it
allows you to analyze the ideas that were unsuccessful, how you can improve them, or at least
avoid repeating the mistakes of others. Use these skills to contribute to research papers and
other scholarly writing in the future.
As you read the articles, consider the following questions: (1) How could the topic of this
article apply to your personal or professional life? (2) How could it apply to an organization
you have observed? And (3) What lesson will you learn from this article?
Format your article review using APA Style. Use your own words and include citations for
other articles as needed to avoid plagiarism.
Please include the following topics in your critique of the selected article:

1. Check carefully the submission date and the instructions given with the assignment.
