You are part of a team (three to five students) who together make up the executive managers of a
company, which is entering the European Car Industry.

You will set up a car manufacturing company, design cars and sell these. Your company is in
competition with the others within your seminar group and within the wider marketplace.
Achievement of this is through participation in a business simulation exercise (“The Business Game”).

The exercise is designed to allow you to apply theoretical knowledge to the setting up and running of
a business, which is competing for market share. This will be achieved through application of
simulation software, which will produce results showing the impact of your decisions on the
company’s performance each year.

Before the simulation starts, you are allocated to your company teams. The teams will compete with
one another for market share as part of the simulation.
Information on the market together with cost data will be posted on the e-learning portal. Each
team should read this information carefully and use it to establish a business strategy. During the
simulation, the teams will make decisions over a number of rounds (each round is a year in the life of
the company) which will be delivered to the Chief Executive of the parent company (NBS Motor
Holdings Ltd) who will analyse them. The results, in the form of a computer-generated report, will be
provided to each team at the start of the next round.

The Business Simulation seminars will take the form of shareholder meetings. Each team will make a
short presentation reviewing the performance of their company in the previous round and

identifying key areas where the performance and management of the business can be improved.
The objective for each team is to maximise the shareholder value of their company at the end
of four decision rounds.

To complete the assessment detailed below, it is essential that each team keeps a detailed record
(minutes) of team meetings including notes of the decisions made, the rationale for these decisions,
and the role(s) of team members

these to decisions made during the simulation. Did you change the competitive strategy during the

Needs and Risk Analysis

This analysis specifies how the proposal’s solutions meet the needs of the organization and key stakeholders, and it identifies the potential risks involved as well as strategies for addressing those risks.

When considering a possible course of action, an organization will ask two key questions:
Does the solution meet the organization’s and key stakeholders’ needs?

What are the potential risks to the organization, and how might they be minimized? A needs analysis helps answer the first question, determining whether a solution measures up against key areas of concern to an organization.

A risk analysis addresses the second question. It explores the potential risks of adopting the solution and helps decision makers strategize ways of minimizing, or even avoiding, potential damages to the organization.

Write a two- to three-page needs and risk analysis for the solution or solutions you have proposed.

The analysis should answer the two questions above, addressing critical issues in the organizational context and stakeholder needs. A risk matrix would be a good addition to the risk analysis portion of this document.

In addition, address the following questions:

What are some barriers to the project you have encountered in your analysis? How might you adjust your proposal to address them?

Module 7050SOH – Assessment Brief and Guidance
You are required to write an essay structured to respond to the guides that accompany the provided case-studies.

You will use as basis of knowledge and understanding, the provided case-study to explore and critically analyse how globalisation process and global change impact on emergence, spread, and control of either tuberculosis (TB) or type-2 diabetes.

The essay requires you to demonstrate the ability to interpret and critique rather than merely describe the issues highlighted in the optional case-studies.

OPTION 1: A Global Health Perspective in Fighting Diabetes

Type-2 diabetes is already one of the commonest non-communicable diseases (consequence of malnutrition) whose emergence, control and management are influenced by globalization:

Critically analyse how globalisation has contributed to the increased burden of type-2 diabetes across the world, and set out the challenges facing global and public health agencies in their response to type-2 diabetes.

Guidance to doing the Essay

Through analysing and interpreting the issues highlighted in the case-study on fighting type-2 diabetes in China, use the following guidance to structure a 4,000 word essay in response to the task described in Option 1.

1. Identify and describe FOUR globalization factors and explore to clarify how EACH factor influences global emergence and prevalence of type-2 diabetes [1,500 words].

2. Identify and describe the role of FOUR categories of agencies involved in activities for the prevention, control and management of type-2 diabetes [800 words].

3. For each of the FOUR categories, identify and examine the challenges facing specific agencies in performing their role more effectively to reduce the global burden of type-2 diabetes [1,500 words].

4. Draw your conclusions about (i) globalization and diabetes prevalence, and (ii) issues on global efforts to fighting type-2 diabetes [200 words].

Effective essays will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the connections between complex globalisation processes and malnutrition leading to type-2 diabetes globally. You therefore need to critically analyse the meaning of globalisation and clarify how its process influence type-2 diabetes (the result of malnutrition and inequalities).

Effective essays will illustrate the discussion with one or two examples of recent topical issues in controlling and management of type-2 diabetes, and analyse critically the extent to which globalisation contribute to the problems.

You also need to think about global public health systems arrangements to control type-2 diabetes crisis and discuss the challenges this brings for global partnerships and governance.
