AQA BUSS 4 - Corporate Culture Discussion

If during the exam i cant use 2 companys in the same point, would it be better just to do 6 points with 6 different companies instead of 4 points with 8 different companies?

4 points with 3/4 companies.

In answers which score highly, they will always compare/contrast 2 companies in one point and they will usually get good application for it.

Any notes on Amazon people?

Which companies have you researched mainly? And for what topics can you use those companies in?

are there any ways of saying "linking back to the question" it feels weird saying it 4 times :/ also what does everyone here actually mention when they link back to the question??

Is anyone else finding that their evaluation for the points 'for' are then becoming their main points for the argument 'against' or vice versa?

I just sum up the point and then write "therefore the leader of a company has a big influence on corporate culture" for example. Then I always try to put a "however" on the end and an "it depends on"

What's are some good example businesses for a:

- Strong culture
- Weak culture
- Toxic culture
- Static culture
- Dynamic culture
- Bonus culture
- Entrepreneurial culture
- Bureaucratic culture
- Power culture
- Role culture
- Task culture
- Person culture

Also, are there any other types of cultures we have to know? Thanks.

How do you structure your answer?

thanks

ive done amazon, barclays, zappos, royal mail, john lewis, mid-staffordshire hospital, enron, yahoo and southwest airlines. i also need to do tesco and ikea but. For topics, i havent really sorted them into topics - sorry. what have you done?

I usually do a quick intro, setting the scene...defining etc.
Pick a company, make a point in favour of the argument. Analyse, use fact and figures, link back to the question.
Next paragraph, i use the same company to make a counter argument.
Then I do the same with one or two more companies.
My conclusion is usually about a page long, i use the take AIM approach

Strong = Enron, Zappos, Facebook, Google
Weak = not sure
Toxic = Enron, Barclays, NHS(maybe)
Static = Enron
Dynamic = Royal Mail
Bonus = John Lewis, Barclays, Huawei, Enron
Bureaucratic = Royal Mail (maybe)
Power = Enron
Role = NHS
Task = Barclays
Person = Google, Southwest Airlines

they're pretty much identical to my case studies! wish you the best of luck! have you got twitter?
