A mythical business is an idealised and fictitious business, but it is based on a real and specific context. Your group will use OB theories and concepts to create a mythical business. The final report should apply OB theories or concepts from four different modules covered this semester to your mythical business. You must refer to four specific and distinct OB theories or concepts, but your group’s overall analysis should be integrative and cohesive. Your group will need to work together throughout the term to maintain this integration and cohesion across the report. Guiding questions and suggestions will be posted on the LMS and discussed in workshops. Your group is expected to draw on these to help focus the content of your analysis. You are expected to use feedback on your drafts, or feedback provided to the class as a whole, to improve your answers and final report. The final report should include the following information: • Title page – Include the report title, students’ names and ID numbers, subject code, workshop time, workshop facilitator name, due date • Contributions – List names and id numbers of all group members who contributed to the assignment. Include a brief description of each group members’ specific tasks/contributions (e.g., wrote specific sections, researched relevant articles, edited specific sections, etc.). • Table of contents • List of illustrations and List of tables (if applicable) • Introduction – Include the purpose, scope and outline of your report. • Main body – Use appropriate headings/sub-headings for different sections, and include at least the following information: o Background – Provide an overview of your mythical business. Briefly describe your mythical business (e.g., approximate size, what service or product is provided, where it is located, major competitors, etc.). This section should be relatively short as you will provide further detailed information as you apply OB concepts to aspects of your business. o Analysis and application of OB topics from four different modules – Apply OB concepts to manage and improve your mythical business. Draw on the guiding questions and suggestions provided in workshops and on LMS. Develop coherent, logical arguments that are supported with relevant academic literature and other high quality evidence. o Use in-text citations throughout your report. Refer to Research and References below for more information about research sources and referencing style. • Conclusion – Summarise and integrate your findings. Identify any limitations within your report. • References – Include the full reference information for all sources cited in your report. • Appendix – Include a copy of your Draft 1 and Draft 2 as an appendix at the end of your report. • Note that the title page, table of contents, list of illustrations/tables, references, and appendices are not included in the 4000 word count. • Note that this report should not include an executive summary or separate recommendations section. Please do not include these items as they will take unnecessary space away from your main analysis Inclusion of these sections will likely result in a lower overall mark. Research and References You are expected to take a scholarly approach and should incorporate relevant organisational behaviour theory and research. Your group is expected to read and use information from a minimum of 15 academic research articles other than the research sources provided in class. Academic research articles refer to articles published in academic, peer-reviewed journal articles. The academic research articles should be relevant to the topic, contemporary (i.e., published in the last 5 years) and of high quality (i.e., published in journals ranked by the Australian Business Dean’s Council or Australian Research Council as A*, A, or B). You are encouraged to use additional high quality sources beyond the minimum requirement. For example, you may want to refer to additional journal articles, book chapters, industry surveys, reputable websites and practitioner publications. Note that Wikipedia and similar sources are not acceptable for this assignment. Tips for finding appropriate references will be posted on the LMS and further assistance is available from the teaching staff and the library. Cite all sources in the main text of the document and include a separate reference page at the end of the document. The in-text citations and references should be formatted using either the current version of the Harvard style or APA 6th edition. Refer to the tips on applying these styles in the Assessments module of this LMS site. It is important to maintain consistency of the reference style you have chosen.
