    Learning Outcomes Assessed

    Across the two case studies, you will demonstrate your ability to analyse and apply organisational management concepts including: selection methods and turnover;

    interviews and performance appraisal; emotions and motivation; team conflict and

    leadership; organisational structure, stress and coping; continuous learning, change and realignment; worklife balance strategies; using IT for organisational change; and

    evaluating practice across national/global culture.

    CASE STUDY 1 (UAE) OasisEats: Scaling Hiring, Development and Performance in a Regulated, Diverse Labour Market (45 marks)

    OasisEats is a UAEbased organic mealprep and delivery company operating across

    Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Rapid growth has been driven by corporate partnerships, a surge in appbased orders, and expansion into premium health plans. The company must

    recruit and onboard 120 new employees within 10 weeks across four role families: delivery riders, customer support representatives, warehouse coordinators, and team leaders.

    The CEO wants a fast, technologyenabled hiring process. The proposed approach includes automated CV parsing, chatbot screening, a short online psychometric assessment, a combination of structured and unstructured interviews, and an

    assessmentcentre day for team leader roles. The CEO also wants to introduce a new performance management system tied to customer ratings and deliverytime metrics, with monthly performance reviews.

    Challenges have emerged:

    • Candidate feedback suggests the process feels opaque, overly automated, and potentially biased.
    • Hiring managers disagree on what ‘good’ looks like; job descriptions are inconsistent across departments and locations.
    • Turnover in frontline roles has increased sharply, with workload, scheduling unpredictability, and fairness concerns.
    • Training is compressed into a single day of elearning plus shadowing; early operational errors are rising.
    • The UAE context adds complexity: Emiratisation targets and ethical expectations require transparent, fair, culturally sensitive hiring and development practices.

    You have been appointed as an organisational management consultant to redesign OasisEats people resourcing and development system while protecting fairness,

    legal/ethical defensibility, and workforce sustainability.

    Tasks (Answer ALL)

    1. Workforce planning and peoplerelated priorities (8 marks)

    Identify the most urgent workforce challenges implied by the case (e.g., capacity, skills gaps, turnover, job clarity, fairness, cultural/legal requirements). Prioritise the top three challenges OasisEats must address in the next 10 weeks and justify your reasoning.

    1. Job analysis, job design and competency framework (8 marks)

    Choose ONE role family (rider, customer support, warehouse coordinator, or team leader). Explain how you would conduct job analysis (stakeholders, data sources, methods). Produce a competency/KSA profile with 812 competencies, including

    proficiency levels for at least three. Explain how this supports fairness and consistency.

    1. Selection system design (reliability, validity, fairness) (10 marks)

    Design a full selection process for your chosen role. Include stages, tools,

    scoring/decision rules, interviewer training, and biasreduction strategies. Justify all choices using reliability, validity, and procedural justice principles.

    1. Responsible AI and ethical/legal defensibility (7 marks)

    Evaluate risks associated with AIenabled recruitment in this context. Propose at least five safeguards covering governance, transparency, fairness monitoring, human

    oversight, and appeal mechanisms.

    1. Training needs analysis, training design and transfer (7 marks)

    Propose a Training Needs Analysis (organisationtaskperson or performance analysis). Design a 30day onboarding programme (content, methods, schedule). Explain how you will maximise training transfer through workplace support,

    motivation, and feedback.

    1. Performance appraisal, retention and wellbeing (5 marks)

    Design a performance appraisal approach suitable for OasisEats. Include performance standards, an appraisal method, feedback cycle, and link to development. Propose three evidencebased actions to reduce turnover and burnout.

    CASE STUDY 2 (GLOBAL) NOVA Care Group: Motivation, Team Dynamics, Culture and TechnologyEnabled Change Across Regions (45 marks)

    NOVA Care Group is a multinational healthcare services organisation with sites in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America. NOVA is known for high clinical standards, but has recently faced rising demand, talent shortages, and regulatory

    pressures. To improve efficiency, leadership has introduced a digital scheduling platform, productivity dashboards, and hybrid working for nonclinical teams.

    Unintended consequences have emerged:

    • Roles and workload distribution are contested between clinical and nonclinical teams.
    • An ‘alwayson’ culture is developing, with blurred boundaries and emotional exhaustion.
    • Employees show reluctance to speak up, contributing to quieter meetings and delayed conflict surfacing.
    • A serious incident occurred when a team followed a flawed plan despite concerns-

    suggesting groupthink and low psychological safety.

    • Regional cultural differences complicate adoption of new systems and leadership expectations.

    You have been asked to provide an integrated diagnosis and propose evidencebased solutions that improve motivation, teamwork, leadership, wellbeing, and

    technologyenabled change across cultures.

    Tasks (Answer ALL)

    1. Motivation and emotion at work (10 marks)

    Using TWO motivation theories (e.g., selfdetermination, justice, goalsetting),

    diagnose how NOVAs practices affect direction, effort, persistence, and wellbeing. Explain risks for engagement and ethical behaviour.

    1. Team dynamics, decision quality and conflict management (10 marks)

    Analyse the meeting and teamwork problems using concepts such as groupthink, evaluation apprehension, production blocking, and role ambiguity. Propose a plan including improved decision processes, psychological safety practices, and

    conflictresolution strategies.

    1. Leadership across cultures (8 marks)

    Evaluate which leadership styles and decision approaches (transformational,

    participative, situational, etc.) fit NOVAs diverse regions. Propose a global leadership framework balancing consistency and cultural sensitivity.

    1. Organisational culture and change (9 marks)

    Using a culture framework (artefacts/values/assumptions; tightloose; culture vs

    climate), diagnose misalignments at NOVA. Then propose a change plan for the tech systems including communication, employee voice, training/support, and success metrics.

    1. Stress, wellbeing and worklife balance (8 marks)

    Apply the JDR model to explain burnout risk and performance impacts. Propose individual and organisational strategies including workload redesign, supervisor support, autonomy, boundary policies, and positive use of technology.

    Marking Criteria (Student Summary)

    Each case study is marked out of 45. Markers will look for:

    • Accurate and relevant use of module concepts and theory.
    • Strong application to the case (clear diagnosis, logical reasoning, use of evidence from the scenario).
    • Quality, feasibility and coherence of recommendations.
    • Integration across topics (e.g., linking selection to training; linking culture to wellbeing and tech change).

  • Case 4-4 Threats to Audit Independence (pg. 296-297)

    Case 4-4 Threats to Audit Independence (pg. 296-297) To do First 2 Questions From Page 297

    Identify any potential threats to independence that exist based on the facts of the case?

    Thinking back to the biases discussed in Chapter 2, what biases might the identified threat(s) make Katy more susceptible to and why?

    Is Katy obligated to discuss her feelings about DGS with the compliance partner when they meet? If so, what should she say? Do you think the compliance partner should remove Katy from the audit? Explain.

    The SEC seems to be adopting the position that questions about the independence of auditors and the audit engagement can be made based on a materiality criterion. The reason given is that auditors may be able to maintain their objectivity and integrity even when certain relationships exist. In other words, Katys relationship with the CFO might be evaluated through the lens of how significant the relationship is with respect to an independent audit. What are the dangers of relying on materiality to judge independence and can reliance on objectivity and integrity be sufficient to make these judgments in Katys situation?

  • The windshield survey

    Guidelines for

    The Windshield Survey

    Explanation:

    Each person will enter their community by conducting a windshield survey. As the

    name implies, students will observe the communities that they have targeted by driving

    around the neighborhood and/or walking around the neighborhood on foot. If the

    community is a workplace, school, or some other institution, a windshield survey of the

    neighborhood should still be done as well as a tour of the facility. If the community

    chosen is a phenomenological community, a windshield survey should be done in the

    neighborhoods(s) where this community resides. For example if Cambodians in

    Shawnee are targeted then a windshield survey of where Cambodians live should be

    done.

    During the windshield survey, students should note the following:

    The infrastructure such as buildings, bridges, parks etc.

    Are there sidewalks? Any safety issues?

    What types of buildings are seen? Are they new or old?

    What types of schools are seen? What other type educational institutions such

    as trade schools or universities are seen?

    What type of health services to you see?

    How many churches are seen?

    What type of housing is available? Are there empty houses and building?

    Are lawns unkempt? Are houses in need of repair?

    What goods available to buy? What types of businesses are in the community?

    What about the environment? Is there pollution? Is litter seen? Are there trees

    and places where nature can be seen?

    What are people seen doing? Where do people gather?

    What type of entertainment is available?

    Places to exercise and be physically active?

    Markets with fresh fruits and vegetables?

    Local newspapers or other types of media?

    Law enforcement?

    What can you see from just driving around and observing?

    Demographic and other types of information that cannot be seen from a windshield

    survey need not be included in the windshield survey.

    There are many examples of windshield surveys of communities found on youtube.
