ASSESSMENT
INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT
Our company has been asked to prepare a report for the National Association
of Manufacturers (http://www.nam.org/) on the theme: The Importance of
Marketing Creativity and Innovation.
This Management Report should not exceed 3,000 words.
Please note:
It is worthwhile looking at the various reports within the website of this
Association to have an overview of format and style.
Students can also choose to develop their own format and style as
appropriate to a management report.
However, as this is an academic submission it is expected that a theoretical
underpinning will be in evidence and sources will be used (which must be
acknowledged using Harvard referencing).
Guidance Notes:
- students should review carefully all the annotated feedback and mark
sheets from CW2 Individual Assignment.
The emphasis in this Referral assignment for the Individual Assessment is for
a student to consider the importance of Marketing Creativity and Innovation.

The word count excludes words used as part of tables, graphs, appendices
and the bibliography. This word limit of 3,000 words means students will have
about six to eight sides of written text in which to evaluate and apply
(illustrate the practical applications) - assuming 400-450 words per page.
Thus careful use of tables, graphs and appendices is permissible to flesh out
the arguments / discussion. For example, two or three mini case studies
vignettes- might be integrated into the text: this allows references to real
life examples while (a) keeping the discussion in the text clear and to the
point and (b) allowing the word limit to be met.
