Your writing should follow the basic guidelines of academic writing.
Submit your summary in a Word document or Google Doc.
Be sure to use MLA formatting: 12 pt. font, Times New Roman, double space everything.

Scenario (fictional):
SolarTrend (ST) is a three-year-old global solar energy company. They configure solar panels for home and industrial use. In the last year, they have had many client complaints that the company is not culturally sensitive regarding their employees and that they do not seem willing to collaborate on the installations in areas of the world that are difficult areas to access by good roads or plane.
