Case study ANALYSIS

This is a case study about two different organisation or firms and analysing there marketing competing techniques
Word limit: No more than 1500 words (plus or minus 10%). Assignments that exceed
2000 words will be referred back to the author for revision and penalties for
late submission will be applied until the assignment has been resubmitted
within the specified word limit.
Aim: The primary aim of this assignment is to explore your capacity to analyse the marketing
strategies and marketing processes of real organisations and determine their effectiveness. It also
aims to determine your ability to analyse such practical matters using early concepts (such as
marketing intelligence, market segmentation and target marketing to name a few examples) covered
in the formative weeks of the unit.
Core Task:
Basing your arguments on the academic literature that you have studied in the first six topics of this
unit, write a report on the ways two different organisations have been able to compete in their
markets. Your report should discuss the following points about each of the two organisations:
1. Evidence that the organisation has a gain a competitive advantage from their marketing
processes.
2. Theoretical analysis of the reasons for the achievement of this advantage.
Your discussion is to be based on two suitable published case studies. This means case studies
published in the academic literature – for example, the series of case studies in a textbook, or
published in journals etc. Case studies and short articles in newspapers, magazines, website opinion
pages and the like are definitely not acceptable, although such materials may be used to supplement
the published case study and your analysis. All sources must be properly referenced. If in any doubt
about the suitability of a case study, seek an early ruling from your tutor.
This is a substantial piece of scholarly work and will require extensive engagement with both unit
theory and at least two detailed case studies.
Process:
1. Choose your two cases. They all need to be published cases in academic sources (e.g.
textbooks, journal articles). It is obviously important that each case represents an instance of
a company achieving a clear success in terms of their marketing function.
2. Analyse and locate evidence. Begin to analyse each case in terms of the two questions –
particularly question one listed previous. It is vital that you respond to both questions, but
the evidence successful marketing practice is more likely to be in the case material itself. It is
in this part of the process that you might bring in supplemental material from company
documents/websites, media analysis and so on. Be sure to reference all sources properly.
You need to try and show clear and where possible objective evidence of sustained
competitive advantage.
3. Analyse and explain. You need to move from the presentation of evidence to explaining how
the company/organisation was able to achieve its success through its strategies. This part of
the assignment requires you to consider any aspect of the marketing strategy process and/or
any aspect of the organisations’ marketing-based strategising that you think has enabled
them to sustain their competitive advantage. You will need to show that you understand
relevant theories and concepts from the course and that you can apply them to an analysis
and assessment of different companies’ marketing actions and performance. Consider using
relevant models and theoretical perspectives to make your analysis. For example, you might
find that one successful organisation has executed its marketing strategy by applying Ansoff’s
Matrix in a disciplined manner, whereas another successful organisation has executed a
successful marketing strategy by consistently exploiting some interesting form of customer
segmentation. You may find an opportunity to critique various concepts and theoretical
positions through seeing how they apply or don’t apply to your case organisations. Evidence
that you understand and can use tools discussed in the early topics of the unit will add value.
4. Write up. On completing your analysis, you obviously need to write it up. You should respond
to this task in report format, with headings and subheadings used to help readers understand
the structure of your paper. A possible structure might be:
a. An introduction which both sets up the task and the rest of the paper, and introduces
the core concepts that the task is designed to deal with. You might also take this
chance to scope the work – for example the time frame that will be used to assess the
marketing success for the case organisations.
b. Description of the two cases. Describe each case, each organisation and the sources of
your information.
c. Evidence of Marketing-related success (leading through to a competitive advantage for
the firm). Marshal all the evidence that you can that you think reveals that each
organisation has well and truly found success in the marketing realm.
d. Analysis and Explanation. Provide a detailed analysis of how each organisation
achieved its success in marketing terms.
e. Conclusion. Summarise the key points and what can be learnt from the overall analysis.
5. Submission. Once you have completed the report and are satisfied that you have done your
best, submit it via Turnitin on Blackboard. Submission needs to be made before midnight
(AEST) Friday 27th November 2015. Please be reminded of the plagiarism rules which apply.
The marking criteria for the assignment are on the next page. They are published to give you
detailed guidelines about the way in which your mark will be calculated. Please read them
carefully. Note that they are a guide, not a definitive formula for allocating marks. No set of
criteria can accurately describe every possible assignment and so your final mark will reflect
the application of academic judgement by your marker to your whole assignment.
Assignment 1: Case Study Analysis Marking Criteria
School extension policy
Students wanting an extension must make a request at least 24 hours before the assessment item is
due and the request must be received in writing by the unit assessor or designated academic.
Extensions within 24 hours of submission or following the submission deadline will not be granted
(unless supported by a doctor’s certificate or where there are exceptional circumstances – this will be
at unit assessor’s discretion and will be considered on a case by case basis). Extensions will be for a
maximum of 48 hours (longer extensions supported by a doctor’s certificate or exceptional
circumstances to be considered on a case by case basis).
A penalty of 10% of the total available grade will accrue for each 24-hour period that an assessment
item is submitted late. Therefore an assessment item worth 20 marks will have 2 marks deducted for
every 24-hour period and at the end of 10 days will receive 0 marks.
Please note: work commitments are rarely a sufficient reason to approve special consideration and
being away on holidays is never a reason. There is no penalty for submitting an assignment BEFORE
the due date, so if you are going away just manage your time to get assessment tasks finished before
you go. You’ll enjoy your holiday more.
Extensions will NOT be approved because of problems with personal computers or storage devices.
Back up your work every day to a secure location.

Case Study- Corporate affairs

 
Please use the instructions. all the information will be uploaded including the skeleton powerpoint which needs to be filled out ONLY. Please be creative but straight to the point. and also practical. the scenario will also be uploaded ———Situation::

It is your first day within the Corporate Communications team. Unfortunately, your line manager is attending a meeting off-site, but he has left you the following memo and will return in an hour.

Memorandum

To: Candidate
From: Manager

Welcome to the team! Sorry I can’t be here to greet you in person. I do have an exciting first task for you though:

International Private Banking (IPB) have recently seen disappointing results. We have been asked to work with the team and ultimately create a Corporate Affairs plan to grow value in the business

They have provided us with a data pack of key information on their business. We are due to meet with the Managing Director of IPB tomorrow to discuss the way we would help them and demonstrate our initial understanding of the key drivers of their recent business performance, based on the data they have provided.

I would like to take along a set of 4 slides on which to base our discussion with the MD.

I have produced a set of skeleton slides and have begun to fill in a couple of details to give you a better idea of what we should cover. Your task is to complete these slides and be prepared to discuss them with me when I return in an hour. There is no “right” answer; the purpose is to have an informed discussion.

I realise that you may not have previous experience within IPB, so have provided you with an overview of the basics of private banking and an explanation of some of the terms you may come across in your reading.

So, you should have:
• Overview of private banking
• Data pack
• Skeleton slides

Case study (choice of writer)

9 pages case study, and 7 pages annotated bibliography, for the annotated bibliography, i would just need 5 out of the 10 sources used in the case study.

Introduction
Your framework for this assignment was good. But you needed to be more explicit about how the article you chose related to overall argument. The introduction should clearly summarise how the rest of the assignment will dress your topic.
Research skills
On of your resources appear to be from 1991(although you claimed that it was from 2013), and you did not include it to your appendix. In general you needed to focus more on articles describing how OB theory can be applied to the problem of ethics in organizations. It would have been good to include articles that weren’t specifically about Zimbabwe if they allowed to do this –all organizing share some common aspect. Although articles were generally drawn from high quality source, they were not correctly referenced. In addition, some summarise were too short and other were too long. while some summarise showed god understanding of key issue. Others were less substantial. Strength and weakness were not evaluated in methodical manner.
Quality of argument
You relied too heavily on one source (Agere.2014) and did not integrate all your sources into your argument. You actually referred to an article that wasn’t mentioned in your bibliography (Rampal,2009),more than several of the articles you did mentioned combined. Citation were incorrect. You did not apply OB theory from your chosen articles to explain why unethical behavior occurs and why it’s a problem.
Presentation
Your written expression throughout this assignment was flawed. While your writing was generally understandable, it detracted from professionalism of your assignment. Extra source referred to in your summary were not referenced correctly. Not all source that you discussed were included in your appendix. Formatting was inconsistent, with too many small paragraph.
Overall while you shoed a good understanding of the key issues. Your assignment di not sufficiently address the criteria. Make sure that you keep your argument focused and support it with OB literature

I JUST NEED THE 9 PAGES CASE STUDY I WILL BE UPLOADING THE ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR YOUR REFERENCES I NEED THE SAME TOPIC FROM THE PREVIOUS WRITER CHOICE PLEASE CHECK.

case study questions for Computers and Society

. Instructions: 1- Each question should be answered in a short paragraph. 2- Note that I am particularly picky in how you use sources for your answers to case studies. I want YOUR words. You may quote to illustrate a point, but you must make that point in your own words. Any quotes must be marked. 3-. format, in addition to the questions that needs to be answered. I’m not sure how many pages it will be but since each question requires short answer paragraph I say two pages would be enough, or a little more!!

Case Study

What is the significance of professional Therapeutic Communication in Mental Health Nursing and how this tool significantly affects mental health consumers?

Assessment Is Required to:
Extensively discusses the background of the question providing insightful analyses of the rationale and identifying alternative questions.

Provides extensive and detailed synopsis of the literature. Thoroughly critiques articles considering strengths and weakness of evidence provided. Clarifies evidence in support of alternative views. All literature is peer reviewed or primary resources from credible contemporary sources.

Thoroughly analyses clinical practice in relation to the question. Discriminates rationally using reasonable judgment when evaluating and critiquing clinical practice against contemporary literature. Provides extensive consideration for changes to practice based on findings.
This is an introduction I wrote for the writer to gain a sense of the direction of the essay.

“The effective development of therapeutic relationships with clients in a Mental Health setting at extremely significant for the provision of care as they allow for the exploration of feelings and allows for patients to explore fundamental information about themselves and their illnesses (Morrissey & Callaghan, 2011).

Banar (2011) and Daniels (2004) discuss the significant idea that the value of a therapeutic relationship between a nurse and client is dependent on the nurse’s capacity to develop report effectively through communicating not only verbally through words but also nonverbally through actions. Daniells (2004) goes on to discuss that most people are born with the ability and urge to express themselves and therefore, in instances concerning the relationship between a mental health consumer and the registered nurse, a nurse ought to establish qualitative therapeutic relationship with their client which will be influenced by worth full communication skills (Desmond & Copeland 2000., & Daniels 2004).

As a student nurse studying to become Registered Mental Health Nurse, I found during my clinical placements for mental health; therapeutic communication and the development of interpersonal relationships have been fundamental to my learning and pave the way for the development of my skills in mental health. However, during my placement I have found that some mental health nurses obtain this skill more so than others and this matter ultimately has the potential to significantly impose a nurses potential to better care for their patients. Ultimately I have found that therapeutic communication in mental health nursing is a crucial intervention tool as it paves the path for my patients to gain confidence to play an active role in their own care and recovery. Thus the basis of my question for this assessment.”
