Develop a Change Management Plan for a Specific Organisational Context
This assessment is an individual report for the BUSI1815 Leading and Managing Change module. The task requires students to develop a change management plan for a specific organisational context involving either a global organisation or a UK-based organisation. The proposed plan should be based on an actual organisational change initiative and demonstrate an understanding of the theories, concepts and tools covered throughout the module. The report requires students to analyse the selected organisational change initiative and develop a practical and theoretically informed change management plan. The analysis should consider the organisational context in which the change is taking place and examine the factors that may influence the success of the change strategy. Particular attention should be given to resistance to change and the managerial, organisational culture and social factors that can affect how change is introduced and managed. A central requirement of the assessment is the critical evaluation and application of relevant change management models and frameworks. Students should use appropriate theories and concepts to support their analysis and demonstrate how these can be applied to the selected organisation and its specific change initiative. The resulting change management plan should provide a detailed implementation strategy that explains how the proposed change can be managed within the chosen organisational context. The report should also address the management of resistance to change, particularly where the organisation operates in a global context. Students are expected to consider how managerial practices, organisational culture and social factors may create challenges or opportunities during the change process. The plan should therefore connect theoretical perspectives with practical organisational considerations and provide appropriate strategies for implementing and managing the change. The assessment has a total word length of 2,000 words and is weighted at 60% of the module assessment. The required structure consists of an Introduction of approximately 200–300 words, a main Change Management Plan of approximately 1,600–1,900 words, and Recommendations and Conclusion of approximately 200–300 words, followed by a reference list. The main section should present the change management plan for the chosen company and should be supported by relevant change management theories and concepts. The assessment addresses the learning outcomes relating to analysing the effects of resistance to change in a global context and critically evaluating change management models and frameworks. Students should therefore demonstrate critical understanding, appropriate application of theory, analysis of organisational and contextual factors, and the ability to develop a practical change management plan supported by academic evidence.

Entrepreneurial Practice – Critical Analysis, Business Venture Proposal and Reflective Practice
This assessment for the Entrepreneurial Practice module requires students to critically analyse a real organisational issue using one of three specified employer case study videos and develop a proposal for a new business venture. The assessment is an individual 3,500-word equivalent portfolio consisting of three tasks: a 1,500-word report, a 1,000-word briefing note, a narrated two-slide PowerPoint presentation, and a 500-word reflective personal and professional account. Students must select only one of the three case studies provided: Paragon, Reliance Housing, or Ovo Biomanufacturing. The chosen case study must be used consistently across the relevant tasks. Task 1 requires a short report based on the selected employer case study. Students must critically and strategically analyse the challenges and issues facing the organisation using one or more appropriate strategic analysis tools. The report must also critically evaluate the organisation's leadership model or models and communication strategies, including their impact on employee and organisational culture and performance. Finally, students must provide three justified recommendations designed to enable and improve organisational performance. This section is 1,500 words and represents 30% of the assessment. Task 2A requires a 1,000-word briefing note based on the same case study. It involves a critical appraisal of the phases of entrepreneurial practice from the idea stage through to delivery, including the benefits and potential funding sources for the proposed new business venture. Students must also critically analyse strategies for addressing and managing risks within the proposed venture and critically appraise the entrepreneurial traits, characteristics, skills and competences required for strategically positioning the new venture within the organisation. Task 2B requires a two-slide narrated PowerPoint presentation lasting three minutes. The presentation should pitch the proposed business idea to an audience of employees, managers, senior managers and the Board of Directors within the case study organisation. It should explain what informed the new business idea, its benefits to the organisation, potential funding prospects, risks and risk-management strategies, and the entrepreneurial traits, characteristics, skills and competences required for strategic positioning. Task 3 is a 500-word reflective personal and professional account. Students must select a professional area from the CMI Code of Conduct and Practice and reflect on how it can be applied to their current or future professional career. The brief allows the use of reflective models such as Gibbs, Kolb, Rolfe or Burton, or another appropriate professional and systematic reflective model. The assessment develops skills in communication, creative thinking, integrity, adaptability and completing tasks, with particular emphasis on leadership and entrepreneurial skills. The learning outcomes include evaluating ethical and inclusive approaches to leadership, diversity and entrepreneurship; reflecting critically on entrepreneurial practice and effective leadership; understanding principles for leading and developing people; understanding leadership and development strategy; and understanding entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial practice in strategic contexts. The submission requires Task 1, the Task 2A briefing note and Task 3 to be combined into one MS Word document, while Task 2B must be submitted separately as a narrated PowerPoint with audio. The written work should include a cover sheet, page numbers, Arial 12-point font and 1.5 line spacing. References and appendices are excluded from the word count, while words in tables count towards the final word count. The assessment also carries a 10% allocation for referencing and structured presentation across the three tasks. The assignment brief places particular importance on using the selected case study as the foundation for the analysis. Wider research may be used, but the primary focus should remain on the case study interview, CMI materials, module-related models and content. Students are expected to apply relevant models, tools and methods discussed in seminars and CMI learning journeys and support their analysis with appropriate evidence and academic literature.

Success Through Business Ethics (BS846) — Individual Report: Ethical Failure in an FMCG Brand, Moral Philosophy, Decision-Making and Leadership Response
This Level 7 individual report examines a real fast-moving consumer goods brand that was found to have engaged in unethical business practices between 2000 and 2023, and works through why the failure happened rather than simply recounting what occurred. The brand is selected on the basis that sufficient documented evidence exists about both the company and its external environment — regulatory findings, investigative journalism, financial disclosures and NGO reporting — so that every analytical claim can be supported rather than assumed. The introduction establishes what business ethics means as an academic field, drawing on recognised sources, before introducing the chosen brand and setting out concisely what the unethical practices were, when they came to light and who was harmed. The first and largest analytical section applies three moral philosophical bases from the module to the case. Each is used as a lens rather than described in isolation: the utilitarian calculation the company appears to have made and where its accounting of harm was deficient, the duty-based obligations to consumers, workers or communities that were breached regardless of outcome, and the character and organisational culture questions that virtue ethics raises about how such decisions became normal internally. The evaluation is genuinely critical — it identifies where the company's conduct could be partially defended under one framework while failing badly under another, which is where the analytical marks sit. The second section takes one of the two theoretical approaches offered and applies it in depth. Where ethical decision-making is chosen, the report traces the sequence of judgements that produced the outcome, examining awareness, intent, organisational pressure and the moral intensity of the issue. Where social accounting is chosen, it assesses what the company disclosed about its social and environmental impact against what was actually occurring, and what that gap reveals about the purpose its reporting served. The third section evaluates leadership. It characterises the prevailing leadership style from the evidence and then focuses on the response once the practices were exposed — whether leaders denied, deflected, settled quietly or accepted accountability — supported by tables, figures and quoted material showing the consequences in share price, revenue, regulatory penalties and documented social or environmental harm. Three concrete recommendations follow, each derived directly from a failure identified in the preceding analysis and justified specifically for this brand rather than offered as generic good practice, with a short conclusion drawing the sections together. Harvard referencing is applied in text and in an alphabetised reference list.

Business, Culture and Change in Context: Organisational Acquisition Case Study
This CIPD Level 3 assessment examines how the external business environment, organisational culture and planned change influence organisations and their people. The assessment is based on a case study involving Best Pharmacy Ever (BPE), a small group of local pharmacies considering the acquisition of Emrosu, a much larger national pharmacy chain with approximately 100 stores and an established online pharmacy operation. The acquisition creates significant implications for organisational structure, culture, technology, people practices and change management. Learners are required to provide written responses to nine case-based questions. The assessment begins by examining external factors that may affect the acquisition and identifying appropriate post-acquisition business goals. It also requires consideration of the organisations' products, services and customers and the ways technology could support people professionals, improve working practices and strengthen collaboration following organisational growth. A central component of the assessment concerns organisational culture. Learners must explain the meaning and importance of culture, consider organisations as interconnected systems, and assess how the actions of people professionals can influence wider organisational outcomes. The final questions focus on planned organisational change, the contribution people professionals can make during periods of transition and the potential impact of significant change on employees. The unit therefore develops understanding of environmental analysis, organisational systems, workplace culture, technology and effective change management from a people-practice perspective. Written answers should make clear and consistent use of the case study and demonstrate application of relevant people-practice concepts rather than providing generic theoretical descriptions. The required submission is approximately 2,500 words, with a permitted variation of ±10%, subject to the CIPD word-count policy.
