According to Abdul Baseer himself, the leader of the Al-Qaida terrorist cell assigned to the United States, his plot to finally destroy the country starting with flooding New Orleans shall eclipse 9/11 in enormity. The terrorists have plotted long, hard, and painstakingly to do so, thus it appears they might very well succeed. Fortunately for the American nation, the Special Assignments Team (S.A.T.) has just been assigned to investigate suspicious activity in the aforementioned city. S.A.T. is an agency within the government that “officially does not exist” and is tasked by the U.S. President himself to carry out “top secret” missions, ranging from reconnaissance to assassination. The investigation in New Orleans shoots up in importance to the level of national security when Dan Jenkins, the S.A.T. field agent, discovers that Al-Qaida terrorists are indeed operating in the city. The agency immediately starts “taking care” of the cell thereafter. Although the terrorists put up quite a fight the S.A.T. ultimately foils their plot.

Book Description

Management cases are an inseparable part of any Business School class. Cases help students understand complex business situations, apply theoretical knowledge and learn to articulate their opinions before any audience. The cases can be valuable to both students and instructors alike because one learns better when actively engaged. Tedious theoretical concepts are retained longer and understood better when they are applied to real life situations and discussed in classrooms extensively. These deliberations have an inherent benefit of honing their convincing and negotiation skills and developing communication capabilities. Case discussions and presentations also develop team building and inter-personal skills. This book contains narrations of various business scenarios which require critical thinking and strategic decision making. They begin with the central problem and go on as an interesting story, culminating at a point which requires responses from its readers. They may talk of a fundamental business issue but are narrated in a suspenseful, stylised and exciting context. This book is aimed at management students, scholars and executives working in the corporate.
