Only important background information will be referenced so accurate conclusions or assumptions can be made.
If people can’t do something, for sure they will tell you can’t do it too. And if you want something, go and get it. (Will Smith Movie Quotes That Will Motivate You Through Adversity, n.d.).

1. Using the AAA Leaders’ Competency Model (attached in the e-mail), identify one (1) strength and one (1) area of development for you. Provide examples of behavior for each competency where you’ve been given feedback or demonstrated skills.

251). The concept of the building block is to be fundamentally motivating which shows managers how to construct four basic intrinsic rewards: meaningfulness, choice, competence, and progress (Kreitner & Kinicki, 2013).

In this section the author describes the theories that will support the analysis of information. In order to construct a theoretical background for the study the author chose to describe theories regarding the selection of countries. 5.1 Transaction costs theory Transaction cost theory was developed by Coase (1937) and then re-analyzed by Williamson (1979). The theory explains why companies exist and expand their activities to external environments finding out that ‘’A Transaction cost occurs when a good or service is transferred across a technologically separable interface’’.
Literature Review on Fundamental Theories IT outsourcing is a topic that not in short of theories. During the last 3 decades, a large amount of empirical work across the last three decades has been guided by three main categories of theories. Those theory groups further developed into different schools which are the base for analyzing the impacts of outsourcing activities. In this research, empirical work based on three most important theories from economic (Transaction cost theory), strategic (Resource- based theory) and social category( relational/ social theories ) were selected for an in depth discussion.
