Write a report describing and analysing a current business topic on a selection of people management aspects and issues within a company of your choice.
You must identify two different business/management topics within that company. The topics are to be chosen from the weekly session titles on this module. For example, Motivation, Diversity, Leadership, Change Management, etc.
The company and the topics must be approved by the seminar tutor, who has the final say over which companies to use. It may be possible to combine different aspects but check with your tutor.
For each topic, you are expected to incorporate at least one appropriate theory/model or recognized practice. For example, for Motivation, you could include Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. For Leadership, you can use Theory X and Y etc.
In your conclusion, you are to include at least two recommendations as to how might the company/industry, etc. improve the situation in the future.
See below for the full explanation of the marking criteria
The Topic/title
- The title needs to be agreed by the seminar tutor.
- Feel free to discuss possibilities with colleagues and your lecturer. It’s usually best to research a company and study the one that offers the most information about internal HR policies and management practices.
- ‘Describe’ means ‘this is what happened’, ‘Analyse’ means ‘this is why it happened’.
- Recommendations could relate to the future, or to what others could learn from this situation.
Basic Format:
- A title page, a contents page, an introduction, the main section with sub-sections, and a recommendation, conclusion and references. Clear headings are essential. Relevant sources of information should be cited using the Harvard referencing system (see the Study Skills section on Blackboard for details).
- Any areas of doubt need to be raised with your lecturer
- Length: 2000 words +/- 10% not including contents, appendices or list of references.
