affected organization Excellence?
You have to write about the selected one dimension (perceived quality dimension) of the quality
management principles and conduct a review of the academic literature to identify FIVE research
articles.
write an analytical report that consists of 1000 words.
The report shall include:
Your terms of reference:
• Define the topic: you must define the topic and components of the topic
• Search for materials: use search tools (such as the library catalogue, databases,
bibliographies) to find materials about the topic
• Evaluate what you have found: read and evaluate what you have found in order to
determine which material makes a significant contribution to the understanding of the
topic
• Analysis and interpretation: provide a discussion of the findings and conclusions of the
pertinent literature
• Describe the relationship of each work to the others under consideration
• Identify new ways to interpret, and shed light on any gaps in, previous research
• Resolve conflicts amongst seemingly contradictory previous studies
• Point the way forward for further research
Assignment Criteria
• The report should be typed and clearly laid out, preferably 12-point font, 1 1/2 line
spacing
• Spell/grammar checked
• The key to success is analysis: Why? So what? Specific recommendations, resulting from
use of the theory. Not simple description of what you have seen without thinking about
it.
• It is essential that you conduct your analysis making explicit and acknowledged use of the
theory.
• There must be a bibliography and all references must be correctly cited.
• It should be written in a report style, not a long essay.
Assignment: Useful Hints
You need to be balanced in your approach, give a critique, good and bad aspects, and use the models to
make your choices clear. This will help ensure you conduct a thorough analysis and derive valuable
recommendations.
This is coupled with the balance between description and analysis. Some of the former is necessary, but
it is the latter that is vital. This demonstrates your understanding and particularly your ability to apply
the theory and derive useful practical results, understanding and recommendations. It is these analytical
aspects which represent the higher levels of learning that can be used a transferable skills valued by
both academia and employers.
It is important that you break the report down into a logical sequence with a series of headings
and sub-headings.
