Detailed Brief for Individual / Team Assignment
Assignment Title: Individual presentation: Culture and Organisational behaviour
TUTOR INSTRUCTIONS
• PLEASE PREPARE A DYNAMIC 50 MINS PRESENTATION TUTORIAL TO GUIDE STUDENTS ON THIS ASSIGNMENT USING RELEVANT CULTURAL FRAMEWORKS TO assist STUDENTS
•
• (e.g. TROMPENAARS Cultural dimensions, Kluckhohn and Strodtbeck: Values Orientation Theory, Hofstede, Hall to demonstrate use of frameworks etc).
There should be three diagrams to provide guidance on the theoretical frameworks application into practice to provide clear examples of the task requirements.

Description of the student’s assignment, task, content and structure:

You are required to create a 10-12 minutes PowerPoint presentation on culture and organisational behaviour. You should underpin your discussion on slides with a variety of academic and business sources. Critically discuss the following points:
1. Analyse the concept of culture and its relevance to issues of management and organisational behaviour. How does culture influence management and organisational behaviour?
2. Discuss the key issues influencing cultural difference, and how this may affect leadership and motivation, communications and negotiating, decision-making and organisational relationships.
3. Examine techniques for managing cross-cultural teams for high performance. Are they different to managing a team with single cultural origins?

Academic Integrity, Plagiarism and Essay Mills
• You are NOT allowed to copy any information into your assignment without using quotation marks and a reference – this is ‘plagiarism’ (a type of academic misconduct).
• You are NOT allowed to copy from other students (or allow other students to copy from you) – this is ‘collusion’.
• You are NOT allowed to copy from your own assignments on other modules – this is ‘self-plagiarism’.
• You must NEVER buy assignments from websites (essay mills) – this is called ‘contract cheating’ and it is now illegal in the UK.
• If you commit academic misconduct, your mark will be reduced, and you will face disciplinary action for repeat offences.
Contact if you are unsure of the rules or how to avoid academic misconduct, and you will receive help.
