Finding Your Fortune 500 Company
The first thing you need to do before you begin a research paper is to select the company that you're going to write about.
Your assignment asks you to find the following information:
Company History and CEO Profile - Look for company history and CEO profile on the company's website and in the Library's business databases.
Company Outlook - Look for information about the company's outlook in the company's annual report and SEC filings. Also company outlook information can be found in the company's Investment Analysis Report.
Legal Situation/Mergers & Acquisitions - Look in national, regional, and local business news; in the Library's business databases; and on government websites.
Marketing (Mission/Vision Statement) - You can find the company's mission statement on the company's website. Be aware that a company's mission statement isn't always called "mission statement." It may have other names, such as "vision statement," or it may not have a title at all.
