Do you believe that every employee is different?. Critically analyse your response how you as a manager will use your understanding of individual differences to manage employees to contribute to organisational efficiency and effectiveness.
A critical research report requires a thesis statement, a body of argument and evidence and a conclusion.
In effect, the parts of the critical research report are responsive to the following questions:
o Thesis statement: What is your short answer to the question?
o Body of the critical research report: How do you arrive at that answer? What is your line of reasoning and your evidence for it?
o Conclusion: What should the reader conclude from what you have presented?
