This assignment challenges students to formulate a professional response to in-depth issues contained in a real life Video Business Case. Students are encouraged to review the Background video segments for the Video Business Case selected for analysis. Students will act as an independent professional business consultant reporting to senior managers of the company concerned. Students are expected to provide informed and robust advice to this business client. A sophisticated understanding of the critical aspects of this Video Business Case needs to be demonstrated. A succinct and high impact report is expected. The report is expected to be <2,000 words,="" including="" an="" executive="" summary=""><300 words)="" but="" excluding="" references.="" introduction,="" table="" of="" contents="" and=""

on="" an="" introduction="" or="" conclusion.="" ·="" an executive="" summary must="" be="" placed="" after="" the="" cover="" page,="" but="" before="" the issue (and="" table="" of="" contents="" if="" you="" choose="" to="" have="" one).="" it="" should summarise the="" entire="" report,="" and="" be="" written="" last.="" ·="" the issue(s) and="" the cause(s) are="" given="" in="" the=""

alternatives are="" provided.="" 5="" is="" possible,="" but="" it="" may="" reduce="" your="" word="" count="" too="" much.="" ·="" decision="" criteria can="" be="" given="" in="" a="" table=""

state="" an="" issue="" for="" which="" there="" is="" no="" right="" or="" wrong="" answer="" and="" therefore="" represents="" a="" dilemma="" to="" a="" course="" of="" action.="" ·="" appendices

understand="" the="" report shouldn't="" be="" in="" the appendices.="" appendices="" will="" not="" earn="" marks.="" ·="" through="" your="" research="" you="" may="" find="" that="" the issue has="" occurred="" in="" the="" past,="" and="" the="" company="" has="" a="" solution="" -="" this="" does="" not="" matter="" in="" the="" context="" of="" the="" vbcr,="" as="" you="" are=""

consultant/mediator="" to="" solve="" the="" issue,="" it="" will="" look="" rather="" strange="" one="" consultant="" suggesting="" they="" need="" to="" hire="" another="" consultant!="" ·="" an executive="" summary is="" a="" précis="" or="" an outline="" of="" the="" entire="" report.="" it="" serves="" two="" basic="" purposes.="" first,="" it="" provides="" essential="" information="" for="" those="" who="" might="" not="" have="" the="" time="" or="" inclination="" to="" wade="" through="" the="" entire="" document.="" thus="" the="" executive="" summary,="" like="" a="" headline="" in="" a="" press="" advertisement,="" plays="" an="" essential="" role="" in="" attracting="" the="" interest="" of="" the="" reader="" –="" enough,="" it="" is="" hoped,="" to="" encourage="" the="" reader="" to="" want="" to="" delve="" further="" into="" the="" full="" body="" of="" the="" report.="" second,="" it="" emphasises,="" to="" those="" who="" have="" read="" it,="" the="" most="" essential="" points="" that="" need="" to="" be="" remembered="" or="" revisited="" for="" further="" scrutiny.="" ·="" care="" must="" be="" taken="" to="" ensure="" the="" executive="" summary="" is="" a short,="" sharp="" snapshot of="" the="" entire="" report.="" it="" can="" only="" be="" written="" at="" the="" conclusion="" of="" the="" report-writing="" process,="" although="" it="" is presented="" at="" the="" beginning,="" not="" at="" the="" end,="" of="" the="" document.="" the="" writing="" of="" the="" executive="" summary="" is="" not="" an="" easy="" task,="" as="" it="" requires="" considerable="" discipline="" to="" condense="" a="" large="" body="" of="" information="" into="" what="" should="" ideally="" be="" no="" more="" than="" one="" or="" two="" pages="" –="" or="" around="" 250-300="" words="" maximum.="" ·="" an="" important="" principle="" to="" bear="" in="" mind="" is="" that="" the="" executive="" summary="" must not contain="" any="" material="" that="" is not="" in="" the="" main="" body="" of="" the="" report.="" it="" should="" also="" follow="" the="" structure="" of="" the="" full="" report.="" in="" writing="" an="" executive="" summary,="" it="" is="" often="" found="" that="" some="" important="" information="" has="" been="" overlooked="" in="" the="" main="" report="" or="" an="" important="" point="" has="" been="" insufficiently="" emphasised="" or="" presented="" in="" some="" illogical="" manner.="" where="" this="" occurs,="" the="" report="" should="" be="" revised.="" ·="" the decision="" criteria in="" a="" business="" setting="" are="" those="" variables="" or characteristics="" that="" are="" important="" to="" the="" organization="" making="" the="" decision.="" they="" should="" help="" evaluate="" the="" alternatives="" from="" which="" you="" are="" choosing.="" i="" use="" the="" word="" “variables”="" because="" you="" can="" disregard="" any="" characteristics="" that="" are="" constant="" among="" the="" alternatives.="" for="" example,="" if="" all="" of="" the="" cars="" i="" am="" evaluating="" get="" the="" same="" fuel="" mileage,="" then="" disregard="" that="" characteristic="" as="" it="" will="" not="" help="" you="" choose="" between="" the="" alternatives.="" ·="" the="" decision="" criteria="" should="" be measurable and="" should="" be within="" scope of="" the="" problem="" you="" are="" trying="" to="" solve.="" on="" criteria="" that="" seem="" immeasurable,="" you="" should="" at="" least="" be="" able="" to="" compare="" one="" to="" another.="" for="" example,="" the="" typical="" software="" characteristic="" “user="" friendly”="" is="" not="" measurable="" as="" stated.="" you="" could="" either list="" out what="" makes="" the="" application="" user="" friendly="" for="" your="" organization="" or="" you="" can="" try="" out="" the="" applications="" and="" have="" a rankings for="" the="" alternatives="" on="" relative="" “user="" friendliness”="" between="" them.="" ·="" this="" assignment="" challenges="" students="" to="" formulate="" a="" professional="" response="" to="" in=""
