    GUIDELINES FOR WRITING A CASE STUDY ANALYSIS
    These guidelines will guide you through the process of completing the assignment:
      What steps you need to take
      How to use the assignment information effectively
      How to read the case study
      How to structure and organise your writing
    What is a case study?
    A case study is an example of real-life issues (problems) in a company or
    organisation that you have been asked to solve. Writing a case study analysis requires
    you to uncover the problem or problems, examine alternative solutions and propose the
    most effective solution using supporting evidence, and finally, to make recommendations for
    action.
    Step 1: Preparing the Case Study Assignment
    1. Before you begin writing, you need to understand what you have to do. First, read all
    the information that forms part of the assessment task:
    a. Read the task carefully to find out what you have to do.
    b. Read the marking rubric to find out what criteria will be used to mark the
    assignment.
    2. Use reading strategies (skimming, scanning and deep reading) to understand the
    case.
    a. Take notes; highlight relevant facts, underline key problems.
    3. Create a mind-map to summarise and organise ideas, and information.
    4. Read the electronic links provided in the Week 4 Assessment Task to help you
    develop the academic skills needed to complete the case study assignment.

    5. Analyse the case by asking questions
    a. What are 2 to 3 problems I can identify in the case?
    b. Why do they exist?
    c. How do they impact the organisation?
    d. Who is responsible for them?
    6. Review your course notes. Have you studied examples of similar problems? What
    methods, approaches or theories were discussed?
    7. Research scholarly articles to increase your knowledge about the methods,
    approaches or theories that apply to the problems you identified. This research will
    help you develop possible solutions.
    8. Develop possible solutions
    a. What needs to change?
    9. Develop 2 to 3 possible alternative solutions to the issues (problems) you identified.
    a. Support your solutions by using evidence from your research.
    b. Explain which theory (or theories) supports each solution you suggest.
    10. Select the best solution
      Which solution will have the most impact?
      Consider strong supporting evidence, pros, and cons: is this solution realistic?
    Step 2: Writing the assignment
    Once you have gathered the necessary information, a first draft of your analysis should
    include these sections (you may use these headings in your assignment or develop your
    own headings):
    1. Introduction
      Include a brief general statement about the sector the case study is from.
      Identify the challenges managers face when managing complex organisational
    environments in this organisational sector.
      Identify the particular company you are going to analyse.
    2. Background
    The ‘Background’ section is to set the scene so the reader has some information about the
    background of the company you are analysing.
      Use your own words to paraphrase background information, relevant facts, and
    the most important issues from the case.
      Do not just copy information from the case study: be brief and summarise.

    3. Identification of issues and problems
    In this section you identify the major problems and their causes
      What are the major problems? What caused them?
      Describe the positive and negative aspects of the management approaches and
    activities in the case.
      Integrate the information in the case study with relevant management theories
    and approaches.
    o Use concepts from class (scholarly readings, tutorial discussions,
    lectures) and your research to show which management theories and
    approaches apply to the problems you have identified
      Read https://emedia.rmit.edu.au/learninglab/content/case-studies-tutorial to
    help you understand how to integrate theories
    4. Possible Solutions
    This section should link to the issues and problems you identified in the previous section.
      Outline 2 to 3 possible alternatives that could resolve the issues and/or problems
    that you identified in section 3 (you are not required to write all alternatives…just
    the key alternatives you consider are having the most impact on the organisation)
    5. Proposed Solution
      Provide one specific and realistic solution.
      Explain why this solution was chosen.
      Support this solution with solid evidence from your research for this assignment
    and concepts from class (scholarly readings, tutorial discussions, lectures).
    6. Recommendations
      What specific strategies are needed by management for accomplishing the proposed
    solution?
    o What should be done and who should do it?
      Which management approach/es would you recommend the company adopt to meet
    the challenges it currently faces?
      What outcomes would you expect these approaches to have?
    7. Reference List
      Minimum of 5 references in the Harvard referencing style

    Finalising the Case Study assignment
    After you have composed the first draft of your case study analysis:
      Read through your draft carefully.
      Check for any gaps or inconsistencies in your content or structure:
    o Have you identified key issues and problems?
    o Have you provided solid evidence and supported the evidence with theories
    and concepts from scholarly articles?
    o Do the solutions link to the issues (problems) you identified?
    o Is any part of the analysis missing?
    o Have you provided in-text referencing to indicate where you have integrated
    theories and concepts?
    o Have you provided a reference list at the end of the paper using the Harvard
    referencing style? Make sure the list is in alphabetical order by family name!
      Make any necessary revisions.
      Proofread and edit your analysis. Submit it through Turnitin to check the similarity
    rating.
      Use the University services to help you
