a. Since you are Robin Hood’s most trusted advisor and are most knowledgeable about crafting and implementing effective strategies, he has called upon you to advise him on how to proceed in light of the situation. Within the next few hours, Robin Hood expects you to provide him with:

· A rundown of the issues he needs to address
