* Management issue or potential issue * Identify one management problem related to an issue discussed in this course (organisational structure, ethics/CSR, management panning) * Find at least five refereed journal articles relevant to the management issue selected. * 1. Introduction (1-2 paragraphs)
This section should include the following components: a brief description of the research problem identified from the case, a rationale for investigating it, and a brief but clear statement of the argument to be developed in the Review (for example, a statement such as: 'This paper will argue that, in order to achieve higher levels of motivation and performance from their staff, the company needs to redesign the way work is organised and performed. Research indicates that the Hackman and Oldman (1980) model provides the best overall outcomes'). The statement of argument becomes central to the development of your Review. It needs to be given some thought. A second paragraph may further explain the problem/potential problem by providing evidence from the case and supported by academic literature. * 2. Literature Themes or Arguments (2-4 paragraphs)
In this section, identify two arguments or themes in the research in relation to the identified problem. You will find, in all areas of research, at least two (and often more) perspectives or arguments on any issue. (For example, some researchers think extrinsic rewards such as money are the best way to motivate staff; others believe the key is intrinsic rewards associated with having interesting and fulfilling jobs). You need to evaluate these arguments critically and work out which is the best supported and has the most application to your case. For each argument (or theme), address the following questions: * Which authors support or agree with a particular argument? What evidence do they use? Which authors disagree with this argument? What evidence do they use? * 3. Conclusion and Recommendations (1 paragraph)
Summing up your problem, the different perspectives you find and the perspective that you feel is best supported by the research you considered. You also need to make recommendations that will solve the problem.

research requires the procurement of sophisticated instruments or going for field study to distant places then it might become difficult for the researcher to do so in the absence of any financial assistance. Further, publishing in international journals also involves investment in terms of money and time.

Progressive Era, which lasted from the 1890’s through the 1920’s was an important time of growth for the women’s movement, most importantly in the field of Social Reform. Within this time, there were many women who began looking for what Jane Addams refereed to as “the larger life” of public occurrence.
