Having undertaken that research, you are now required to develop your recommendations for the Client. BIZ304_Assessment 2_ Recommendation Report_M5 Industry pays significant amounts of money for high quality consultant recommendations. This project provides a simulated, real-life case to test your ability to deliver sound recommendations that add value to an organisation. Assessment 3 for this subject requires you to make a presentation of this report. There is a separate Assessment Brief for that undertaking. In order to develop valuable recommendations for the Client, you will need to properly analyse the data that emerged in Phase I and develop ways to solve the Client’s problem/opportunity. As you are working in a team you will need to collaborate and at different times all members of the group will need to demonstrate leadership. By drawing on the insights and skills of the entire team, you maximise the chances of the end product being effective and innovative. In formulating your recommendations, you will need to interact with multiple stakeholders including the Client in particular, but also with your learning facilitator, potentially with third party providers of information and with each other. As in industry, in all instances, maintaining professionalism is paramount. Any contact with the Client (including emails) must first be approved by the Learning Facilitator. As Appendices to the report (not included in the word count) the group will be required to provide for each team member one page of feedback (for example, on their leadership, collaboration, professionalism, communication skills etc. during the project). Each page of feedback will be agreed and co-written by all the other team members and cannot be edited by the receiver of the feedback. The feedback should be constructive, and must include both positive as well as developmental suggestions, with specific examples to support behavioural observations wherever possible. You are encouraged to take notes throughout the term that you can refer to, to facilitate this. Feedback can draw on your experiences in both Assessments 1 and 2. Instructions: You are required for Part A to: • Regularly post your comments (identifying your specific contributions/roles to the project) to the group discussion forum in the Assessments section of Blackboard for your specific group as activities evolve • Be clear about your personal involvement • Your lecturer will be assessing your comments to see if you are engaged, showing leadership, encouraging your team and taking specific responsibilities BIZ304_Assessment 2_ Recommendation Report_M5 You are required for Part B to: I.
