• Imagine that you are a business consultant with expertise in HRM, and you were asked to analyze key HR practices in the company and prepare a report that will help the company to understand to what extent its HR strategy meets best practice and what else might be
done to sustain competitive advantage.
• In the report, you should critically evaluate four areas including employee resourcing, equality, development and motivation, based on the company information gained from a variety of sources such as company website, reports, articles etc. Use credible resources.
Wikipedia, Investopedia, Quora, websites containing examples of essays and alike are NOT credible resources.

Firstly the Title
Secondly the Executive summary

• Remember to support your arguments with evidence. Consequently evidence can include statistics, examples, tables, graphs etc. Additionally to be persuasive, evidence should be discussed and evaluated, not just mentioned. Finally make the report well-reasoned.
• Further, remember that context plays a crucial role. HR practices can differ significantly between
organizations, depending on industry, workforce size, maturity etc. Also consider the context
when building arguments.
• You should use concepts, theories and models from the module to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of HR practices and processes. You are permitted to use concepts from other modules, but they should assist concepts from this module, not
replace them.
