Further discussion about the 1st assignment:Your job is to offer meaningful insights about the PO operating environment by making balanced use of a variety of analytical frameworks to interpret the data / information you have collected. By analyzing internal / external environments, you are redefining the management challenge(s) as a business problem(s) that can be solved.Remember that you are functioning as a management consultant. Part of the intellectual work you need to do is provide a unique perspective or prism through which you interpret the PO and its role in the energy sector. Each student will have a slightly different interpretation – and that is okay. You will be marked on how well you support your point of view with robust use of theoretical frameworks.You should not offer solutions/practices to how the PO should engage with the Case Study organisation at this point. You will do so with the 2nd & 3rd assignments.
