CanGo week 6
I have observed that CanGo is in the mists of making decisions on how to grow the company. They have found out that they cannot really fund all of the ideas they have for the growth. There was the suggestion to move employees around, or an IPO put in place or the company will never grow into anything bigger than what it is. They are focused on their competitions offerings and are worried they will be left behind if they don’t expand their offerings.

2) Issue – Warren, Maria, and Gail are talking with each other about taking Whitney off the servers and to put her on applications. Warren at first is saying no because he worries of server failure and the business failing. But suggests she can write codes for some of the new ventures. Maria suggest it may be a balancing act for Whitney, but Warren dismisses what Maria says and goes on to say that they are not going to get something for nothing and massive overtime will need to be paid. Maria tells warren that Liz thinks it’s really a priority but warren again dismisses it and states that it isn’t really a priority. Gail, Maria, and Warren agree that quality must be maintained. Maria then states instead
