-Interpretation of information that allows for evaluation of theory to practice

Vocational scenario

You are an intern working for the Management Institute of Policy and Research. The Institute is updating their website and wishes to have a series of case-studies produced which illustrate the application and impact of leadership and management approaches and styles to business effectiveness and importance. Each case-study will focus on one large business organisation but will draw a comparison with another business enterprise in order to highlight similarities and differences.

Assignment activity and guidance

You have been asked to produce a case-study report for the website to help aspiring managers to understand leadership and management theories and styles and how they can impact on decision making, business effectiveness, organisational culture and organisational performance.

To produce the detailed case-study required, you need to focus on a large organisation of your choosing, assess and critically evaluate their approach to and application of leadership and management theories and styles (in the workplace) and establish the likely impact on decision making and effectiveness.

You will need to consider the key factors which are likely to be contributing to their organisational culture and how it has developed and its potential impact on business performance.

Research and activities needed to inform and produce your case study report will include the following:

1. Conduct research into different leadership and management theories and their application in the workplace to analyse the effectiveness of leadership and management in the given organisation

2. Choose at least one other organisation for research purposes and assess their approach to and application of leadership and management.

3. Comparing the different styles and approaches taken, across a range of business situations, to determine the impact of those styles/approaches on decision

making in the two different organisations. Your report should aim to highlight key differences or similarities in approach and the impact of those on decision making and business performance (relative to the organisations concerned). 4. Examining and making an evaluation of the factors likely to influence the development of organisational culture (in each organisation studied) and its importance in terms of business performance.
