Guideline

Introduction

You could write this section with three different areas. The first area can be used to explain the context of your consultancy report.

The second part could be used to briefly discuss the current issues in your selected company. This area will be the summary of next section but you need to set the scene here.

The final part of this section will need to include how the report will be structured, and what your readers can expect to take from your report.

Challenge / problems the client is facing

You could discuss existing or potential future issues caused by current affairs.

If you decide to discuss current / existing issue(s), you would need to evaluate why your chosen company [client company] has been facing these issues and connect these issues to current affairs.

If you would like to discuss possible future issues which might occur because of the current affairs, you would need to discuss, as consultant’ perspective, why your client company might face challenges in future because of current affairs.

Purpose of the report

You would need to state the purpose of the report. You could explain why you are evaluating specific issues and how this would benefit your client company. Your purpose of the report should be justified by the identified issues established in the section 2. Your purpose of the report will form the question you later evaluate and suggest recommendations for.

The first area can be used to explain the context of your consultancy report.The second part could be used to briefly discuss the current issues in your selected company. This area will be the summary of next section but you need to set the scene here.

Impact of Research on Stakeholders

In this section, you will firstly need to identify who your internal and external stakeholders are in relation to your report. You will also need to discuss how your project is connected to different groups of internal and external stakeholders, and finally evaluate how your project would impact these stakeholders.

 If you decide to discuss current / existing issue(s), you would need to evaluate why your chosen company [client company] has been facing these issues and connect these issues to current affairs.
