The Assignment Brief:
Select one multinational enterprise (MNE) with any nationality that is active in one or more than one industry. This MNE can be small, medium, large or very large. This company can be famous or unknown, but the information about this MNE should be publicly available in English. Collect required data about this company and its environment from valid sources such as the company’s annual reports, the company’s press release, the company’s website, industry databases (such as Mintel, Euromonitor Passport, Orbis, or Statista), academic case studies, WTO, World Bank, IMF, OECD, UNCTAD’s Global Investment Trends Monitor, market research reports or news by reliable broadcasters.
You need to write an analytical report regarding this company that covers the following strategic issues:
A) Analyse the outer-organisational environment of this company in one of the countries where it is present to identify the major external factors that influence this company
B) Suggest corporate-level strategies for the company
C) Propose business-level strategies for this company
It is expected from you to use any theoretical frameworks or theoretical discussions that can help you in strategic analyses of your chosen company. So, you need to combine theoretical discussions with the factual data about the company. Every theoretical discussion and every provided information about the country or the company should be supported by relevant referencing (citation) from valid academic, international or the company sources. Thus, it is normal to expect citations in every paragraph except in the Introduction and Conclusion sections.

Recommended Structure:
The structure of your work has its own mark. There is no need for an executive summary for this report. The recommended structure for this assessment is as follow.
Coversheet: Use the usual template for coversheet for assignment. This coversheet is available in SurreyLearn in the Assessments folder.
Table of Contents: Provide the list of headings and their page number in one separate page from the cover sheet and the introduction.
1. Introduction:
In one paragraph say what are you going to discuss in your work. You may mention the list of main headings would be discussed in your work.
2. Background to the chosen company:
In one or two paragraphs, give some short information about what your chosen company does and why you selected this company. You may provide some graphs or/and tables to show the company’s market share and position among the competitors in the same industry. Indicate in how many countries this company do business. If you can find, you might write the company’s vision, mission, and objectives. Do not worry if you cannot find.
3. Analyse the outer-organisational environment of this company in one of the countries where it is doing business
3.1. Theoretical: Start this section by brief mentioning of 3 to 9 techniques (theoretical frameworks) that can be used in analysing external environment of an organisation. Your mark would be increased if you identify the similarities and differences that are exist among these techniques (theoretical frameworks). You might use a table to compare these theoretical frameworks to each other (for example, each framework can be mentioned in one of the columns [or rows] of this table) and the written words in the table do not count as part of the 3000 words limit. Teaching and reading materials from week 2 are directly relevant to the topic of this section but do not limit your work to lecture notes in this week.
3.2. Practical: Use any suitable theoretical framework for environmental analysis such as Porter’s Five Forces or the Diamond Model to analyse the external environment of the selected MNE either in its home country or any other countries that this company does business there. You are allowed to use more than one theoretical frameworks for analysing external environment of the MNE. It is much better to use only one or two outer-organisational analysis tools for doing an in-depth analysis instead of using three or more analysis techniques for superficial analysis. Criticise the chosen frameworks. Focus on only or mainly industry-related factors that may have noticeable effect on effective formulation and development of the global strategy in this company. If your selected company is activated in more than one industry, you need to analyse only one industry that is the main source of the income for this company. There is no need for analysing inside of the company. So, do NOT waste your words and time for internal analysis of the firm because it does not have any marks.
4. Suggest corporate-level strategies for the company
4.1. Theoretical: First you may explain briefly main corporate-level strategies. It would be helpful if you compare two or more classifications of the corporate-level strategies by two or more different scholars such as the classification by Wheelen et al. (2017) and the one by Dessler (2016). Using a table would assist you in this comparison (you may allocate one column [or row] in the table for each classification) and the written words in the table do not count as part of the 3000 words limit. Try to criticise these strategy classification frameworks. Teaching and reading materials from week 4 are directly relevant to this topic but do not limit your work to lecture notes in this week.
4.2. Practical: Then by considering the results of the outer-organisational environment, you are expected to suggest the most suitable corporate-level strategies for this organisation. You should justify your suggested strategies by considering the external environment as well as functions and impacts of the proposed strategies. You would receive a higher mark if you propose one or two corporate-level strategies from each of the classifications of the corporate-level strategies. For instance, you may recommend one or two corporate strategies that mentioned by Wheelen et al. (2017) AND one or two corporate strategies that are stated by Dessler (2016). Some of your suggested corporate-level strategies can be similar to the strategies that are already being used by the company or the strategies that have not been used. I want to see your ability to recommend appropriate corporate-level strategies to this organisation, so you will receive a fail grade if you just describe the current corporate-level strategies of this company.
5. Propose business-level strategies for this company
5.1. Theoretical: Initially discuss briefly main business-level strategies. Try to compare two or more classifications of the business-level strategies by two or more different scholars such as the Generic Strategies by Porter (1980) and the Ansoff’s Matrix. Try to criticise the frameworks. Using a table would assist you in this comparison (you may allocate one column [or row] in the table for each classification) and the written words in the table do not count as part of the 3000 words limit. Teaching and reading materials from week 5 are directly relevant to this topic but do not limit your work to lecture notes in this week.
5.2. Practical: After that you should propose the most suitable business-level strategies for this company based on A) the outputs of analysing the outer-organisational environment, as well as B) your suggested corporate-level strategies. It is necessary to have direct and meaningful relationship between the business-level strategies that you are recommending and the corporate-level strategies that you suggested for this organisation. To receive a better mark, you may suggest one or two business-level strategies from each of the classifications of the business-level strategies. For example, you may suggest one or two business strategies from Porter’s Generic Strategies AND one or two business strategies from the Ansoff’s Matrix. Some of the recommended business-level strategies can be similar to the strategies that are already being used by the company or the strategies that have not been used. The intention is assessing your ability to suggest suitable business-level strategies to this company, thereby you will receive a fail grade if you just describe the existing business-level strategies of this MNE.
6. Conclusion:
Summarise your findings and suggestions in one or two paragraphs. You might use a table to help you in summarising your findings and recommendations.
References: It is mandatory to have a full list of all sources you used directly in your work. Please do not mention the sources that you did not use directly in your work. Referencing should follow the Harvard Referencing system only.
Appendices: It is better not to have any appendices. Every necessary information, discussions, tables or graphs should be provided within the main text between the introduction and the conclusion sections. If you use an appendix, remember that the contents in appendix do not have any mark. I will not read what you put in the appendices.

Important Issues:
1.The deadline for the submission is 27th March 2023 at 16:00 (UK time).
2.The assignment should be submitted via SurryLearn.
3.You should avoid plagiarism. Plagiarism is the practice of taking someone else’s work or ideas and passing them off as your own.
4.The length of the assignment is 3000 words. You are not allowed to write even one word more than 3000 words. The written words in the coversheet, table of contents, any tables in the main text, references, and appendices would not be considered as part of the 3000 word limit.
5.Try to have at least one citation in every paragraph, for example: According to Porter (1990)
6.Having more than one citation in each paragraph would increase your mark. For the first class mark you need to have three citations in average in every paragraph.
7.Having multiple citations would improve your mark. You can have multiple citations if only one opinion or finding is supported or mentioned by more than one scholar (or co-scholars in one publication). For example, if scholars of three separate publications are agree on the importance of connectivity between the corporate-level and business-level strategies, you can write something like this: It is necessary to have a direct relationship between the corporate-level and business-level strategies (Aboutalebi, 2016; Smith, 2015; Zhong, 2013).
8.You are expected to use at least 15 different sources in writing your assignment. These sources can be annual reports of the company, essential reading provided on SurreyLearn or any other academic or professional sources. To receive a top mark, you should use at least 25 different sources.
9.To receive a top mark, you need to use resources beyond lecture notes or the essential readings.
10.Try to have citations from relevant papers from top academic journals such as Strategic Management Journal, Long Range Planning, Global Strategy Journal, or Strategic Organization.
11.To identify academic sources concerning strategic analysis, corporate-level strategies and business-level strategies you need to use keywords such as ‘strategic analysis’, ‘environmental analysis’, ‘corporate strategy’ and ‘business strategy’ to search within the top strategy journals.
12.In order to find information about mission, vision and objectives of your chosen company, you may also use keywords such as ‘vision’, ‘mission’, ‘objective’ or ‘goal’ to search within the company-related sources such as the company’s annual reports or its website.
13.Use graphs and tables in your discussions. Tables are great tools to help you compare two or more perspectives to each other. You may use a table with three columns or rows to compare three perspectives of three different scholars regarding alternative business-level strategies.
14.Try going beyond description of theories or current strategies used in your chosen company. Analyse and criticise the theories or/and the utilised strategies in the company by findings their weaknesses.
15.Try not to rely solely on your personal opinion in criticising the theories. Find the criticism made by scholars regarding your mentioned theory, then you can add your perspective to these criticisms.
16.Use the Harvard Referencing System correctly.
17.Submit your assignment in PDF format.

Formatting Issues
1.It is suggested to use fond size 11 for the general body of the text.
2.It is recommended to use one of the readable and academic fonts such as Arial, Calibri, or Times New Roman.
3.You might use font size 13 or 14 in bold for main headings.
4.Font size 11 in bold would be suitable for sub-headings.
5.Any default page margins (e.g. 2.54 for all sides or 2 for all sides) would be acceptable.
6.Try to have headings for every tables or graphs in your assignment. Put the heading above the table or the graph.
7.It is recommended to number all table or graph headings.
8.Mention the source of your tables or graphs under the table or graph. If you developed the table or graph just write ‘Source: Developed by the Author for this work’.
9.The recommended line spacing is either 1.2 or 1.5.

Important note on penalties. All students are required to submit their coursework on time by the deadline set in the Assignment Brief (27th March 2023 at 16:00). Late submission penalties will be strictly applied to the mark as follows:
Time of Submission Penalty
Up until 4pm on Day 1 –
Between 4.001pm on Day 1 and 4pm on Day 2 10 percentage marks
Between 4.001pm on Day 2 and 4pm on Day 3 20 percentage marks
After 4pm on Day 3 Zero

Initial consequences of committing plagiarism
The amount of ‘similarity index’ in the Turnitin report of the submitted coursework would be used to judge initial actions to deal with the plagiarised assignment. It is normal to have a few percentage points of similarity (5-10%) in the assignment due to using a common coversheet and statement of originality. These minor similarities are not considered as plagiarism. The similarities from the coverpage and reference list are parts of overall similarity.
If the similarity index in the Turnitin report is 20% or lower, there will be no penalty. It is highly recommended to keep the similarity index of your work well below 20%.
If the Turnitin report shows a similarity index of 21 – 30%, the student will be required to attend an interview and viva (oral examination), concerning the potentially plagiarised work. In the interview the student would be asked to explain reasons for a relatively high amount of unacknowledged borrowing from other sources. The students who are under investigation would also need to verbally answer some examination questions to show the written discussions in the submitted assignments belong to them. There would be no penalty if the student passes the viva and gives satisfactory responses to the questions. Otherwise, the student may be introduced to the Academic Misconduct Panel to be considered for a fail mark for the plagiarised work.
The student may be introduced to the Academic Misconduct Panel to be considered for a fail mark for a submitted work that has a similarity index of 31% or higher.

Importance of Supportive Autonomy

After reading the Learning Activity, “How Leadership Affects Motivation,”
https://pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/want-to-lead-self-motivated-employees

share one reason listed why having supportive autonomy in a work situation is important. Now, share one reason of your own why autonomy can play a significant role in productivity. Share a time where you either had supportive autonomy in a work environment or did not. How did this affect productivity and your overall moral? Please explain.

Exemplary Fairy Tales

Another type of fairy tale that teaches children lessons on good/bad behavior are Exemplary Tales. This type of tale is usually a story about an exceptionally character that will give a lesson on good virtue to a child. I have 2 tales in this category…

First is a short story by the Grimm Brothers. It is pretty obvious that the girl in this story is so kind she would literally give the shirt off her back! There is a video connection at the end of the story if you would prefer a visual tale.

Week 10 The Star Coins

Next, is a story that some of you might be familiar with, The Steadfast Tin Soldier. It is written by Hans Christian Andersen, who we will learn more about next week as we look at morals and virtues! Art the bottom of this story I added a link to a YouTube video… it is the Disney short from Fantasia 2000 on this tale. Enjoy!

Week 10 The Steadfast Tin Soldier Andersen

For this assignment, read both stories and give a short summary of these tales, in about 100 words. Next, write what you see as exemplary behaviors of each lead character that the author wanted to share with children? Do you think these are important lessons for children today? What did you like/dislike about these tales? (another 100 words)

Bioethics Position Paragraph

Your task is to write a paragraph (maximum length of one page double spaced) that analyzes one specific bioethical issue. You choose which bioethical issue to write about; in this assignment, reflect deeply on a topic that matters to you. If you need help selecting a topic, consult with your instructor.

You should write about a bioethical issue that strikes you as interesting, important, and relevant. For example, if, when reading the assigned chapter in the text, you recalled a personal situation involving bioethics that you thought was unethical, you might write a position paragraph about how that situation relates to your reading. The point of the assignment is for you to reflect deeply on one concept and its relevance to your own life. If you find it difficult to select a topic to write about or have any questions about how your paper should be organized, please consult your instructor.

You must apply at least one ethical theory to support your position and explain how a different theory supports the counter view when applied to this issue.
You must also show how your position supported by ethical theory is stronger than another position supported by another theory.
It is not enough to name a theory; you must explain the theory and demonstrate how your position reflects the logic and reasoning of that theory.

Remember that theory is the “why” behind your beliefs.

I have attached a example review “Example of intrim lit review report” I required this level of quality in my report

This assessment (30%) includes the following two components:
Interim literature form (15 articles, 5%)
Interim literature review report (2000 words, 25%)

Students must prepare an Interim Literature Form (15 articles) according to the prescribed format Interim literature review form.

For guidance to find academic papers, please refer to the instruction Guide to find research articles-RD.pdfDownload Guide to find research articles-RD.pdf

For judging journal quality, refer to this help guide Find high-quality journals.docxDownload Find high-quality journals.docx
present an individually written interim literature review report that outlines the research field, explains the key similarities and differences among the reviewed 15 articles, categorises the 15 articles into different groups based on their similarities and
differences proposes your preliminary research topic in your theme

Students need to include the literature review report and form into a single Word file

No formatting requirements. You can create your own Table of Contents and design the sections and sub-sections of your report.

Requirement 1: Outline the research field
You need to provide an explanation of what your chosen research theme means (e.g. what 5D BIM means?) and what the common research areas are in this theme (e.g. automated quantity take-off, interoperability of BIM applications, etc), justified by the 15 articles reviewed by you.

Requirement 2: Explain the key similarities and differences among the reviewed 15 articles
This requirement means you need to identify the similarities and differences between the 15 articles themselves, not the similarities and differences between the 15 articles and your research topic. You can identify the similarities and differences based on factors that you believe are important in this research theme. For instance, for the theme of 6D BIM, the important factors could be the year of publication, country of the first author, research topic (e.g. energy or waste or water or emission or ?), research methodology used by the paper (e.g. questionnaire or interview or computer simulation or real-world experiment or what?), used software (e.g. ArchiCAD or Revit or Rhino Grasshopper or Green Building Studio or DesignBuilder or what?), data collected by the paper, etc. As themes are different, you need to read the 15 articles and judge by yourself, what are important factors in this research theme. Then, you identify the similarities and differences based on these factors. For instance, regarding similarities, you may find something like 10 of the 15 articles all used Revit. Regarding differences, you may find something like the first authors of the 15 articles all come from different countries, suggesting the importance of this theme is globally recognised.

Requirement 3: Categorise the 15 articles into different groups based on their similarities and differences
In requirement 2, you have identified the similarities and differences between articles. In requirement 3, you need to classify the articles into different groups. You will have different classification results based on different criteria used. For instance, you can classify the articles based on their methodology (e.g. 5 articles used questionnaire, 3 articles used statistical data analysis, 4 articles used 3D modelling software, and 3 articles used experiment/observation), or research topic, or country of origion, or used software, etc. You can provide only one classification result or several classification results based on different criteria. The more nuanced your classification is, the higher mark you obtain for this section.

Requirement 4: Propose your preliminary research topic in your theme

Now, you need to propose your research topic based on adequate justification. Try to provide as many details and justifications as possible. For instance, Why is the topic important in general and also for you to study? Has anyone already investigated the topic and has some results, and if so, why do you still want to investigate the topic? What research methodology do you plan to use? How will you collect the data needed? The more detailed and compelling the justification is, the higher mark you obtained for this section.

ART 100 Formal Art Analysis Paper Instructions

Georgia O’Keefe
● PAPERS ARE TO BE 5-6 WRITTEN PAGES LONG, TYPED & DOUBLED-SPACED WITH 12pt FONT and 1in. MARGINS. ● SUBJECT: SINGLE ARTWORK OF YOUR CHOICE BY ARTIST ASSIGNED BY INSTRUCTOR. ● AN IMAGE OF THE CHOSEN ARTWORK MAY BE PLACED WITHIN PAPER BUT WILL NOT COUNT TOWARDS THE PAPERS LENGTH. ● THIS PAPER IS NOT A BOOK REPORT & DOES NOT REQUIRE APA OR MLA FORMATTING
● THIS PAPER SHOULD BE BASED ON YOUR OWN PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS & CONCLUSIONS ●ORGANIZE YOUR OBSERVATIONS INTO 4 SECTIONS,WRITNG AT LEAST 1 PAGE UNDER EACH OF THESE HEADINGS:
1) DESCRIPTION
Look at the work and plainly describe what you see. Imagine you are having to describe the artwork to someone over the phone. Tell the name of the artwork you are discussing, the name and brief biography of the artist, any dimensions given of the size of the artwork, media/materials used in the artwork, and the date/time period the artwork was created. School or movement or cultural traditional artist and/or artwork belonged to.
2) FORMAL ANALYSIS
In this section you will describe the art elements and principles of composition present in the work. This section of your paper should be at least 2 pages long. Use adjectives to help describe the art elements present in the work. To what degree is each element used? Are the lines thin, thick, organic or geometric, etc? Are the colors bright, dull, complementary or analogous? Be as specific as possible and avoid being vague. Don’t say that there are 4 colors and 3 shapes in the work- explain WHERE in the work these elements are found and what their effect is on the total composition. Are certain colors found only in one area of the work or throughout? Is the same or multiple textures used throughout the work?
Describe the relationships between the elements that you see- their location, size, shape, color, texture, space. Which compositional elements are larger, darker, brighter, closer than others. Let your thinking follow this format throughout your analysis. If the elements of art are the main ingredients in a work of art then the principles of design are the recipe or how the artist chose to mix their own personal stew together. This is the visual composition of the work or how the artist chooses to physically divide or construct the image area. Is the work horizontally or vertically oriented, symmetrical or asymmetrical? Are there any patterns, repetitions, overall similarities or great contrasts which stand out immediately to the eye, if so describe where these design principles occur and how they lead and move your eye around the images composition. Be sure to explain and describe based on your own personal observations and in your OWN WORDS how ALL of the art elements and principles of composition are utilized in yourartwork. What main visual elements or principle unify the image.
3) INTERPRETATION
In this section you are to describe the content of the work. The elements and principles of design are the formal and structural aspect of a work of art. This doesn’t speak necessarily if at all of the content or meaning of a work of art. In the Interpretation section you will answer the questions of what the artist was trying to communicate. What is the purpose of the work? What is the story and mood of the work? What symbolism, visual metaphors or iconography is employed? How do you think the artist felt making the work?
4) JUDGEMENT
In this last section you get to critically assess what you think the aesthetic value of the work is. Do you honestly enjoy or dislike the work? Thumbs up or thumbs down? Please don’t generalize, be specific. Communicate if you think the artist was successful, if the work is original, well-crafted and designed. Use the previous three sections to support and back your opinions and belief about the work and then write your final analysis in this section.

‘Blackbirding’ refers to kidnapping or deceiving people, primarily from the Pacific Islands, to work as labourers in plantations or mines in Australia, Fiji, and other parts of the world. Although it was often referred to as a ‘Labour Trade’, the conditions of blackbirding were similar to slavery. Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, highlights the inhumane treatment of enslaved people in the United States. However, the novel’s themes and messages apply to the global issue of slavery, including blackbirding.
Stowe’s novel depicts the physical and emotional abuse endured by enslaved people, similar to blackbirding’s conditions. For example, enslaved people were often beaten, starved, and forced to work long hours in dangerous situations. Similarly, blackbird labourers were physically abused, including being whipped and chained. They were also forced to work in harsh conditions, with little protection from the elements. In addition, blackbirded labourers were often separated from their families and communities, causing emotional trauma.
The similarities between blackbirding and slavery are further explored in the “The White Pacific: US Imperialism and Black Slavery in the South Seas After the Civil War”. Horne argues that blackbirding continued the slave trade, as it relied on exploiting vulnerable populations for economic gain. The practice was primarily carried out by European and American traders, who saw the Pacific Islands as a source of cheap labour. The labourers were often promised good wages and working conditions, but these promises were rarely fulfilled. Instead, they were forced to work for little to no pay, and their contracts were often extended without their consent.
In conclusion, blackbirding was slavery that exploited vulnerable populations for economic gain. The physical and emotional abuse endured by blackbirded labourers was similar to the treatment of enslaved people in the United States. Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, highlights the inhumane treatment of enslaved people, but its themes and messages apply to the global issue of slavery. Gerald Horne’s book, The White Pacific, further explores the similarities between blackbirding and slavery, arguing that the practice continued the slave trade. The legacy of blackbirding highlights the ongoing struggle for human rights and the need for continued efforts to combat modern-day slavery.
