Assessment 2: Essay (70%)
The essay has a word limit of 1000 words (+/- 10%) excluding references.
Topic: Leadership and Change
Students should critically explain how leaders influence the internal environment of
an organisation (e.g. strategies, systems and procedures, practices, people and
products etc.), essentially demonstrating how different leadership approaches have
an effect on organisational change, identifying the strengths and limitations of that
approach. As part of the discussion, students need to ascertain the role of leadership
and their inter-relationship with organisational structure, and culture as related to
organisational change.
Students should demonstrate an understanding of leadership and change for an
organisation from the private, public or voluntary sector.
The suggested reading for the module can act as a starting point for the essay, but
you are required to conduct additional research using ‘a wide range of sources’.
Please carefully review the Library’s business and management resources for journal
articles, databases and other published information.
