The Integrated Management Project (IMP)

There are two submissions in IMP1 :

1. The first submission is a short proposal of 350-500 words which identifies and describes a current workplace problem or issue; theories, tools and techniques available to provide a business solution; and how the various parts of the business/ organisation come into play, i.e. the integrated nature of the problem is critical here.

This means drawing on your previous and current units in your MBA - Leading and Managing People, Leadership styles and qualities from LP 1 & LP2, Accounting & Finance, Marketing, Competing in a Global Context, Operations and Project Management, Strategy, Entrepreneurship etc. It is important that you should identify the problem within your own organisation.

2. The second part of IMP -1 is a 3000-word submission. You should produce a report that:

Identifies an issue in your organisation that has multiple and varied approaches to its resolution. The issue need not be one of failure but may be a challenge facing an organisation. This should be current or impending but not a past issue. You will identify and integrate a range of theories and techniques drawn from multiple appropriate disciplines from your MBA in the creation of appropriate solutions.

So, how will you approach this assessment?

In-text references and citations are required at this stage.

Once you have framed the problem you will identify and discuss theories, models and paradigms related to the problem. Make sure that you look at the problem from different points of view and relate them to your learning from as many different units of the MBA.
