  • Your task is to analyse a business case study that chronicles a series of social media events…

    Assessment task 3 (weighting = 25%)
    The objective of Assessment 3 is to understand the concept of ‘analysis’ and learn how to analyse information efficiently and effectively using a business case study.
    According to Rosenwaser and Stephen (2009, p. 4), analysis is:
    More than just a set of skills, analysis is a frame of mind, an attitude toward experience. It is a form of detective work that typically pursues something puzzling, something you are seeking to understand rather than something you are already sure you have the answers to.
    Analysis finds questions where there seemed not to be any, and it makes connections that might not have been evident at first. A business case study ‘is a description of an actual situation, commonly involving a decision, a challenge, an opportunity, a problem or an issue faced by a person (or persons) in an organization’ (Erskine, J.A. and Leenders, M.R., Learning with Cases, © 1997, Richard Ivey School of Business).
    The case: The important of social media policies in the workplace
    Companies around the globe are embracing and adopting social media for many different reasons, including: customer service, marketing, internal communications, public relations, and corporate social responsibility. It is now a reality that social media is changing the way stakeholders and companies communicate daily, providing opportunities for collaboration, participation, interactivity, and engagement.
    A key issue for organisations concerns the development of social media policies in the workplace. With more than 15 million monthly Facebook users in Australia and an average of 35% of Australians using social media at work (iHR Australia 2018) the issue of social media and its role within the workplace is growing. As the boundaries between corporate life and private life become more blurred, employees’ actions have the ability to affect the organisation’s brand more than ever. It is therefore critical that organisations have a detailed policy on social media.
    Your task is to analyse a business case study that chronicles a series of social media events that had negative consequences for Sunshine 100, an organisation specialising in responsible foods. This case places you directly into the role of the Director of Social Media, Jane Wilson.
    The case highlights the need to:
    1. Recognise the impact of social media on organisations can be serious with employers held vicariously liable for employees conduct on social media even when comments are made outside of the workplace and office hours. Organisations can also have their reputation and brand damaged by comments made by employees.
    2. Evaluate how an organisation can develop a social media policy.
    3. Devise appropriate strategies for communicating the company’s social media policy to staff.
    Please follow these guidelines to complete the assessment:
    1. Carefully read the case.
    2. Answer the following four (4) questions in your analysis:
    i. The introduction of social media tools across an organisation can pose significant challenges. Managing these challenges goes beyond installing the right tools and technologies. Compare and contrast the challenges posed by social media tools with the challenges posed by the traditional channels of communication.
    ii. What impact might an individual employee’s comments or behaviour on social media have on an organisation’s identity, image or reputation in the sense that it might be seen by broader and unintended audiences?

    Case Study
    Mr Papas is a 54-year-old Greek man who presents to the emergency department with central chest pain. He has no cardiac history and has never been to hospital. There is no known family history of cardiac disease or myocardial infarction. Mr Papas states he has associated symptoms of nausea, diaphoresis, and pain radiating to both shoulders and down his left arm. When asked to rate his pain, he states his pain score is 10 out of 10.

    Mr Papas is pale and clammy. He is afebrile, with a blood pressure of 106/62 mm Hg, a regular pulse of 70bpm, a respiratory rate of 20 breaths/min, and an oxygen saturation of 96% while breathing room air. An ECG reveals an acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). His Troponin I result is 2.4. The plan for Mr Papas is to have thrombolysis medication and be admitted to the cardiac ward for monitoring.
    Mr Papas is anxious and feels guilty about his lifestyle that he considers has contributed to his admission today.
    1. Risk Factors and Health Promotion
    What are the factors that may have contributed to Mr Papas’s myocardial infarction? Outline how you would approach Mr Papas regarding these and what health promotion information and referral’s you would provide to him.

    (1 mark).
    The Senior Supplier has asked whether there can be a single key stakeholder representing the Traditional Owners of the land on which the relevant Central Queensland Campuses are located.

    Describe which approach is most appropriate and provide a brief explanation justifying your answer.
    3.2 Opening statement style
    (1 mark)
    The Project Board has asked that the respective campus leaders open the event on their campus and ask your advice regarding which statement should be used when opening each event. The Board are not sure if it should be a Welcome to Country or an Acknowledgement of Country. The campus leaders are not of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander descent.
    State which of the two opening statement styles ‘Welcome to Country’ or ‘Acknowledgement of Country’ is appropriate for the campus leaders to use and provide a brief explanation justifying your answer.

    The Senior Supplier representing the event management company engaged to design the event program and host the event, provides the following information to the project board:
    One of their event program designers previously developed an event program for the local Maori community group. The designer is confident they could utilise the same event program and modify the content by researching the language, customs and protocols online. They suggest by using desktop research only will save both time and money, as there would be no need to contact anyone outside the current project team.
    State whether the suggestion of using the previous event program and desktop research method for the NAIDOC week events is an appropriate method of requirements gathering? Briefly explain your answer.
    3.4 Requirements traceability
    (1 mark)
    As multiple campuses will be involved in the project, the project board has requested requirements be tracked centrally. What document is used to track or ‘trace’ requirements throughout the project life cycle?
