Case study

You are a member of the People Practice team for a company, BMC that has recently purchased a large contemporary city center licensed food premises in Manchester adding to its growing portfolio of acquisitions in Leeds, London, Nottingham, and Glasgow.

You have been asked to assist in preparing the managers for their forthcoming Strategic Management Planning meeting on implementing the new business strategy, by providing them with a presentation and a written report.

Currently, the company operates a strict centralized policy on all its premises but during the COVID19 lockdown, the CEO considers that the previous business strategy needs addressing and is open to new ideas and approaches to improve the business once trading resumes.

The CEO of BMC is also fully aware that the focus of the business has all too often neglected the people side of the business and is conscious that BMC has a legacy of high staff turnover and low employee satisfaction. Previously, response to this has and the CEO is keen for the management team to appreciate the connections between organizational structure, strategy, and the wider business environment and gain an understanding of organizational culture, behavior, and how people practices support the achievement of business goals and objectives.

Task One Strategic planning meeting report

As your report is being prepared for a formal senior management meeting, it should be written in a formal business report format and style.

Your report is to be provided to where the main priority is to discuss implementing the new business strategy. The team is made up of mainly operational managers who have limited knowledge and understanding of the connections between organizational structure, strategy, and the wider business environment so the CEO has asked that your report should include an understanding of the connections between organizational structure, strategy, and the business operating environment.

Task Two Presentation pack

The CEO has also asked you to prepare a presentation to the managers prior to their formal Strategic A management Planning meeting to position them for their meeting. The focus is to give a theoretical understanding of organizational culture and workplace behavior and how people practices should support the achievement of business goals and objectives. The presentation pack needs to include presentation slides and supporting notes.
