Case Overview Succinct overview of case context.

Diagnosis and Analysis Clear and succinct identification of the key issues impacting on Case Study organisation (strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats) and insightful assessment of the combined current and future implications for the organisation, reflecting sensitivity to CSR  and Business Ethics. The discussion should be well supported by appropriate sources, effectively scoped, logically structured, appropriately detailed and show evidence of wider reading. Where relevant, arguments made should be linked to appropriate theory. (Whilst it is valuable to use a range of diagnostic tools to assist with the analysis of the status quo, this section should focus on the results and analysis of implications).
