CRICOS Provider Code: 02219C BUSN20017 ǀ Assessment 2 ǀ Page | 1 ǀ School of Business and Law CQUniversity Australia ǀ BUSN20017: EFFECTIVE BUSINESS COMMUNICATION Assessment Two: Group and Individual Professional Presentation and Individual Written Report Task Description General Overview: This assessment is a simulation of a professional business presentation. Most organizations today will share information through the communication genre of the professional business presentation. This assessment will help you improve your competency in both written and professional business presentational communication. In addition, this assessment allows you to participate in and reflect upon group processes and interactions. This assessment has TWO PARTS. 1. Individually Written Report; 2. Group Recorded Video. You must follow the guidelines for this assessment as set out in this document and the accompanying video. Case Study: You are a manager and your boss has asked you to give a presentation about communication to members of your team. Your team’s communication skills are generally good, but you and your boss feel that these skills can be improved. You are an expert in the field of business communication, having successfully undertaken a Unit in Effective Business Communications. Each member of the group may pick one of the following areas: 1. Organisational communication 2. Small group/Team Communication 3. Intercultural Communication Having chosen a general area, you must then narrow the area to focus upon a specific topic or area within the general area. For example, if you have chosen to focus upon organisational communication, you could narrow the area to focus upon the topic of informal internal organisational communication. A broad focus on the general area will not result is a ‘high’ mark for this assessment. It is a good idea to consult with your tutor/lecturer about your topic—either in your Zoom lecture/tutorial/workshop or via email. You will need to identify 5 academic journal articles about your chosen topic. These articles will be discussed in the Individually Written Report and serve as evidentiary support within the presentation. Within your part of the presentation, you will need to include the following information: 1. The first part of your individual main point will define and explain the communication topic. 2. The second part of your individual main point will discuss the significance of the topic in terms of effective business communication practices. Assessment Weight: This assessment is worth 55% of your overall mark for this unit Groups: During the week three tutorial you will be able to sign up to be one member of a group of three. You may only present with those individuals enrolled within your tutorial—no exceptions. Failure to sign up for a group will result in your final mark being delayed. If you have not done so, please sign up to a group. There is a tutorial/workshop forum set up so you can ‘meet’ others enrolled. Participating in this forum may help you find other people with whom you wish to work. Due date: The Individually Written Report is due on Monday Week Eleven 11.55 PM (Brisbane Time) and Recorded Group Presentation is due Monday, Week Twelve at 11.55 PM (Brisbane time).

Table of Contents 3. Introduction (including Aims and Objectives). The introduction should be ~200 words 4. Body a. Annotated bibliography (The annotated bibliography is based upon the 5 articles that you have selected to use in your presentation.

NOTE: You may only use literature from those journals listed in Accepted Communication and Management Journals (Moodle Under Assessments). You must work independently. This means that you must find articles that are different from those found and used by your peers. b. Reflection describing your opinion about the positive and negative group dynamics. The reflection should be ~300 words 5. Conclusion. The conclusion should be ~150 words. 6. Recommendations for two future actions to be undertaken in order to promote successful team processes (these recommendations are based upon the identified negative group dynamics). The recommendations should be around ~250 words 7. Five References (These references refer to the articles in your annotated bibliography. You must use the APA format). 8. An appendix that includes: a. Your individual sentence-level speaking outline. The individual sentence-level speaking outline must include the introduction (this is developed as a group), the body (this part of the outline consists of your individual main point) and the conclusion (this is developed as a group). The individual sentence-level speaking outline must include in-text references. There are examples of individual sentence-level speaking outlines on Moodle. You must follow this structure. b.

ONE member of the group must submit the recorded group presentation. There is a written document and a video that provides you with instructions about how to upload and share your video presentation. Failure to submit a recording of the group presentation will result in the no marks being awarded for the group components of this assessment. The Recorded Group Presentation is worth 16 points. The presentation must follow a presentation structure: 1. Introduction (this part of the presentation is developed as a group and should follow the format presented in the sentence-level speaking outline) 2. Body (the body of the presentation contains all three main points. Each member of the group presents his or her main point. The main points are developed individually) 3. Conclusion (this part of the presentation is developed as a group and should follow the format presented in the sentence-level speaking outline) 4. Reference list (15 references in total; five references from each person) Of future note, the recording of the presentation must include PowerPoint slides and a 'live' image of the speakers. In addition, the slides should include all in-text citations. Lastly, this is an extemporaneous presentation—this means that the presentation is NOT read, it is delivered with minimal notes. You may choose who delivers the introduction and the conclusion, but you MUST deliver your individual main point. Other: The content of the presentation must not simply be a re-articulation of the information presented in the weekly teaching and learning materials. You may focus on topics covered in this unit, but you must do so in a manner that extends the information beyond what was presented during the term. assessment two oral presentation Assessment Two: Group and Individual Professional Presentation— Individual Written Report Marking Criteria Marking Criteria High Distinction Distinction Credit Pass Fail Introduction Excellent introduction; articulates the purpose including the aims and objectives, the preview, and general context in a superior manner 2.55- 3.0 Marks Exceed expectations; clearly articulates the purpose including the aims and objectives, the preview, and general context; one of the components could have been more specifically stated. 2.25-2.52 Marks Meets expectations; fair introduction; the purpose including the aims and objectives, the preview, and general context; two of the components could have been more specifically stated. 1.95-2.22 Marks Average introduction; all three of the components could have been more specifically stated. 1.5-1.92 Marks Below expectations (one or more of the parts of the introduction are missing) or non-existent introduction. 0-1.47 Marks Annotated Bibliography Excellent annotated bibliography; All five of the entries articulate the introduction, aims and research methods, findings and conclusion and usefulness in a superior manner. 8.5-10 Marks Exceed expectations; All five of the entries articulate the introduction, aims and research methods, findings and conclusion and usefulness; one of the entries could have been more specifically stated. 7.5-8.4 Marks Meets expectations; fair introduction; All five of the entries articulate the introduction, aims and research methods, findings and conclusion and usefulness; two of the entries could have been more specifically stated. 6.5-7.4 Marks Meets average expectations; All five of the entries articulate the introduction, aims and research methods, findings and conclusion and usefulness; all the entries could have been more specifically stated. 5.0-6.4 Marks Below expectations (does not include all five entries) or non- existent introduction. 0-4.9 Marks Reflection Excellent reflection; the reflection describes both positive and negative group processes in addition to demonstrating a significant degree of insight. 4.25-5.0 Marks Exceeds expectations; the reflection describes both positive and negative group processes in addition to demonstrating some level of insight. 3.75-4

Introduction
    The modern business world has been recognized as adhering to the diverse cultural norms. In fact, business communications these days have grown complex in the sense that the aspect of multicultural workin
g promises is introduced to them. Professionals from different cultural beliefs appear to be the part of a team and they work together, share their experiences and reach out to positive outcomes. It is often mentioned that the culture plays vital role in structuring communication policies for any organization. In the context of making cultural aspect of business communication look integrated as strong and positive, organizations tend to follow some strategic methods like eliciting the ideas to bring disagreements within teams on the surface as well as to promote equality of cultural values through various promotional techniques. The following is an analysis of the Australian cultural context taken to review the condition of cross-cultural communication strategies to ensure quality higher education provided to the international students, keeping in mind that their cultural priorities are kept intact.
Annotated Bibliography
    In the context of examining how culture shapes communication in general, Toegel & Barsoux (2016) define business communication as a part of the organizational culture overall. The study is useful in understanding the fact those organizations these days structure teams regardless of the cultural origins of the professionals i.e. the multicultural dimension of team making process for any project is kept on priority. It is due to the fact that international business expansions have become one of the major policies of the companies. At the same time, when people belonging different cultures come under one roof to work, they happen to share their vast knowledge and experience with each other. In a divergent atmosphere provided to work, it becomes quite significant to see how these professionals of different cultures adjust to the needs and expectations of each other as well as to the project requirement as well.
    When the above theory is applied precisely over the present state of cultural management of communication at higher level of education in Australia, Liddicoat and Crichton (2017) present that Australian higher education segment has grown enough to attract international students. The...
