Written Assignment 

This module is an introduction to the relationship between the student’s employer and their internal and external environment, typically from a managerial perspective. This involves an introduction to the various dimensions of the managerial environment, their impact on the business and the way in which the organisation is managed. The module will naturally feature a large degree of work-based learning, application and assessment
The emphasis is on understanding a wide range of facets of business, and taking a balanced view of the environment, resources and values of the business and how these are both influenced by and influencers of the macro environment. Using case studies and academic models, in addition to reflecting on the organisation’s own business context, students will develop an understanding of the challenges, constraints and opportunities faced by the organisation.
By the end of the module, students will have an appreciation of the organisation’s operating model, key opportunities, challenges and constraints, and the decision making process. This will enable critical review of the mission, vision and values of the organisation.
