Assignment Brief:
In order to complete this assignment you need to run the HBR Simulation[1] on Project Management (http://cb.hbsp.harvard.edu/cbmp/access/57066007). In order to run this simulation, you first need to purchase the license individually. After purchasing the licence, you will be allowed to run the simulation. You are required to run three scenarios (A, B, and C). Scenarios A and B are for you to practice and learn about the simulation (you can run the A and B simulations as many times as you want). You are then required to run scenario C. You will be given ONLY ONE attempt before commencing your essay.
You only have one chance to run scenario C .

Essay Question:
In your essay you will need to reflect on the decisions in the simulation that led to your overall score. Your essay should critically discuss project constraints and how your management of these constraints have affected your project success. Your essay should integrate related literature and reflections from the simulation. You should also provide a screenshot[3] of your simulation score at the end of your essay.
What I Expect from You:
There are certain points that are common to all essays that I would expect to be present in yours. I will be looking for a clear introduction on what the essay is about. Then I would expect a logical development of the argument and some conclusions that follow. The main emphasis is on the content and critical analysis. Conclusions must be precise; each and every key finding must be individually highlighted. The remaining marks for the essay will be given for structure, presentation, style, and referencing. I would expect clear referencing of your sources (APA format), all of which are relevant to the essay.
Your essay should draw onONLY material from peer-reviewed literature (at least five journal articles) and project management texts (at least one text book excluding this paper's text book). Relevant information from your simulation experience should also be included within your essay.
Please contact the paper coordinator directly if you have trouble accessing the Simulation.
