Grand Canyon MGT420 Week 2 CLC: Rancho Solano Case Assignment
Details:
This is a
Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment.
Rancho Solano (RSPS),
with its new international focus and class ratios of 7:1 continues to be a
highly ranked private school in the state of Arizona and was ranked as the
third best private school in the state of Arizona with its overall student
population of over 1,000 (azcentral.com). However, the July 8, 2014,
recommendation by Adam McLaren, the analyst at Moody Analytics, states
“Meritas’ rating or outlook could improve if it can organically grow its
revenue/earnings through price increases and enrollment growth, and increase
size and improve diversification such that debt to EBITDA approaches 5.0 times
(including Moody’s standard adjustments) and EBITDA less capex coverage of
interest expense is sustained above 1.5 times.” (https://www.moodys.com/research/Moodys-rates-Meritas-2nd-lien-term-loan-Caa2-affirms-B3–PR_302960).
Time will tell if the international focus was the right strategic direction for
RSPS as well as what lies ahead for the K-12 private school education industry
in the state of Arizona.
The board of directors
at RSPS has hired you as part of a consulting team to review the situation and
present your findings and recommendations. Write a paper (1,250-1,500 words)
that discusses the case and submit it to your instructor at the end of Topic 2.
Complete this assignment from the perspective of the hired consultants. Respond
to the following questions:
What factors operating
in Rancho Solano’s general and specific/internal environment influenced the
decision to close the two campuses in 2014 and consolidate resources? What is
your evaluation of the decision made by Dr. Mernard and Meritas?
What is your
evaluation of the process of going about the closure? Was RSPS demonstrating
social responsibility? Discuss the closure impact on three specific stakeholders.
Determine the
potential effect of the changes on organizational behavior within the closed
campuses and the campuses that would remain open (at the time of the
announcement). How do you think this change impacted organizational behavior
within the closed campus, within the school, and among the stakeholders?
Provide an
explanation, using appropriate management theories, of how the administration
could have handled the closure effectively with its stakeholders in 2014.
Include one theory from each of the following: the classical approach, the
human relations approach, and the modern management approach.
With the two campuses
now closed, you have been asked to suggest three plans: one long-term, one
mid-term, and one short-term goal for the future direction of RSPS. Justify
your decision for these goals.
Present your
concluding statement.
