FINAL PRESENTATION PROJECT ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The purpose of the Presentation Project is twofold: (1) to develop a firm stand on content
presented in a case you select and support by a demonstrated understanding of the course
principles related to your assumed role in the respective case; and (2) to demonstrate your ability
to compose and deliver an oral message with clear and purposeful content, effectively organized.
INSTRUCTIONS
You will be responsible for recording a video lecture and a corresponding PowerPoint
presentation. The video lecture must be uploaded to YouTube, and the PowerPoint presentation
must be submitted through the assignment link. You will utilize these categories:
1. Introduction
2. Identification of your selected position/role in your selected case, and an overview of
your main points in the presentation.
3. Description of the overall case content and main points in the selected case.
4. Description of your position on the issues and why.
5. Ensure you address the specific nature of the question assigned to the position selected
for the case you have chosen.
6. Provide research that supports the position you have taken.
7. A selected plan of action related to your position, if you should be successful in gaining
the outcomes you seek.
8. Conclusion
9. References in current APA format
This project must draw from the course text and at least 6 scholarly journal articles. These must
be cited in a reference slide at the conclusion of your PowerPoint, which does not count in your
total.
Budd: Chapter 9 in the textbook contains 10 cases at the end of the chapter. Each of the cases
provides an opportunity for you to assume the various roles in the organization or union
leadership that would normally be involved in the scenarios/negotiations presented in the case.
Although each case has 3 questions asking you to assume various roles—the allowable
question/roles for each case are identified below:
Case 1: Question #2 – Legal Counsel
Case 2: Question #2 – HR Manager
Case 3: Question #1 – Labor Relations Manager
Case 4: Question #2 – Union Grievance Chairperson
Case 5: Question #1 – Legal Counsel
Case 6: Question #1 – Director HR

You will be responsible for recording a video lecture and a corresponding PowerPoint
presentation (to be viewed simultaneously). The video lecture must be recorded using a digital
video recorder or similar device. In order to post the separate video lecture for your instructor to
review, please follow the instructions below:
1. Set up a personal user account on YouTube (if you don’t have one already). You can
access Youtube in the Final Presentation Project Resources.
2. Download your video lecture to your computer.
3. Upload your video lecture onto YouTube.
4. Once your video is uploaded and processed, please refer to How to Submit A Video
Presentation in the the Final Presentation Project Resources.
5. You will also need to submit your PowerPoint presentation.
Please note: YouTube can take up to 1 hour to successfully upload a video (depending on your
bandwidth and site traffic). Once your video is successfully uploaded, YouTube will process
your video in order to make it available for viewing. Since both uploading and processing can
take an indeterminate amount of time, you should plan ahead so that you are able to post your
video by the required deadline. It is highly recommended that you allow a window of at least 4
hours prior to the deadline in order to allow for potential hang-ups. Also, keep in mind that
your video must not be less than five minutes or exceed 8 minutes.
The PowerPoint presentation that you create needs to correspond with the video lecture because
your instructor will be viewing both simultaneously. Therefore, as you record your lecture, you
will need to use verbal cues to indicate that your audience should advance to the next slide. Your
PowerPoint presentation must be between 8–12 slides addressing the sections detailed
above. (The introduction and reference slide at the conclusion does not add to the total.)
Please refer to the Final Presentation Project Grading Rubric for details on how you will be
graded.
If you experience technical difficulties while using the YouTube website, do not contact the
Liberty University Helpdesk—please contact the YouTube Help Center. Correspondingly, the
views and opinions expressed in the videos on YouTube are those of the speakers or authors and
do not necessarily reflect the views and opinions held by Liberty University. Your video may be
deleted from YouTube once your final grade is posted. It may also be posted privately using
YouTube privacy settings once you upload your video. You can then copy and paste your private
link into the assignment box in the course.
