whatever background material you have gathered about the organisation. Drawing on
materials from Topics 8 to 12 identify and evaluate the interpersonal communication issues in
your participant’s organisation from the employee’s point of view. Relate these issues to theory
and use academic research to support your findings. Present your findings in your report.

• include a section which describes the company and the interviewee. Use pseudonyms for
the employee and the company. Do not use real names.
• important! Ensure you describe and reflect upon your methods for conducting this
research: how did you select your interviewee, how did you persuade them to participate,
what kind of interview techniques did you apply? Refer to relevant theories on persuasion,
presentations, interview techniques, possibly intercultural communication, and so on.
• describe your findings, and analyse them using pertinent theories (from not just Module
One but certainly from Module Three). Reference the theories appropriately.
• include recommendations for your participant’s organisation. In your recommendations,
make sure that you offer viable solutions. If there are no problems at all, then analyse
which factors ensure that communication is so successful in this company.
• include the informed consent form as an appendix.
Throughout your report, do not refer to your participant or their organisation by their real
names. Use pseudonyms at all times, to protect the identity of your participant.
