Organisations: Behaviour, Structure, Process Assignment - Literature Review

Task Description - Provide a critical analysis and review of one current issue from the topics below:

• Diversity
• Job Satisfaction
• Emotions and Moods

Choose one of the topic areas listed above and then choose one aspect or issue within the topic. This is an minor assignment and the word limit is 1500 words so your analysis and review must necessarily be selective. That is why it is suggested that you focus on one aspect only of the broader topic area. For example, you might want to focus on the issue of Diversity Management within the broad topic area of 'Diversity'. You are required to check with your seminar leader that the issue that you are going to focus on is an appropriate area for review.

Note: Given that this unit is an Australian-based unit, therefore while not compulsory, it is preferable that you choose an issue that is relevant to the Australian organisational environment. This does not mean that the literature chosen has to be restricted to Australian sources - you are encouraged to select literature from a global set of academic sources.

Once you have chosen a topic you are required to read from the academic literature and then critically review and analyse the scholarly contributions and draw conclusions on the topic area. As a guide, at least 10 academic references are recommended to encourage depth and breadth of analysis.

The academic literature can include a range of sources:

• Academic journal articles
• Mono graphs (books)
• Academic articles on the Library's Databases
• Conference proceedings
• Government reports and reports from other major journal.
