Question Business Management

Q The aim of this assignment is to allow participants to explore and develop key capabilities in one of the two key managing others capabilities addressed in the course. Students are to choose either:

1 Conflict and Negotiation, or

2 Empathy and Trust, or

3 Teams and Groups. During the Saturday workshops, diagnostic tools and mini-simulation activities will be undertaken for each topic that serves as the experiential basis for individual reflection about current practice. These are compulsory activities for students enrolled in the on-campus delivery mode. Students who do not attend and participate in these activities will be deemed not to have completed this component of the assessment task and will receive a penalty.

Students are then to prepare a literature review about the chosen topic that defines the key terms and outline key theories or models and application.

Students enrolled in MGMT20124 must utilise a number of diagnostic tools undertaken during the workshops (such as the Johari Window, Thomas Kilmann Conflict Questionnaire, The Big 5, ESCI, Belbin Team Inventory etc.) that provide insights into current capabilities or preferences. Students are to contrast the results of the diagnostics tests and compare these to the literature so as to identify key strengths and weakness in their managing others capabilities.

(See the note below for students enrolled in MGMT20124 & MGMT20129)

Students are then to identify two areas for improvement. Using your learnings from the literature review and diagnostic tools, develop a realistic plan of activities designed to improve your knowledge and skills over a 6-month period
