    They don’t even give any detail about what is the charity’s internal control,
    guess the question is more like mendelow matrix ,

    asking why we keep inform external stakeholder by proving they have particular interest and power that can affect our decision.

    1) a)critically evaluate new CEO leadership ,contrast with previous ceo
    b)Critically assess the staff representative’s email, consider whether to yes or not to change leadeship style

    (total 24m)

    ex ceo will empowered to make decision
    some unpaid staff doesn’t have a profit-motive
    new ceo just imposed and ask them to do

    2)assess charity’s course portfolio and recommend improvements
    use the public sector portfolio matrix, just like BCG but unable remember the name , nevermind as long apply the theory

    4 courses
    -computer skills for beginners – need drops ,
    -website design – need increase, but not place available , consider to take from other course places
    -find a job – need almost constant, good efficiency even make profit, reinvest/reduce subsidy to other course.
    -business skills – need drops, efficiency not good as lot of subsidy on this,close the course but it is condition set by council…..

    (11m only)

    3)
    a)risk management approach
    they identify 150 risk ,no assessment of probability or severity
    mitigation action not appropriate.
    action not effectiveness but no one cares.

    b)External stakeholders who are interested in charity’s Internal control and why we share the information to them
    4 income
    Council – more information may affect their decision not to cut the funds to us.
    Corporate – friends of director , tell them as new ceo comes
    Personal – international issue that misuse the money in charity, tell them to improve confidence
    Participant – tell them because the price will change ,they need to know why

    (total 29m)

    4)a) financial and non financial performance of emarketing proposals
    NPV positive
    initial investment – no enough money but mention the building can use for loan
    on going investment – last amount for 3 years no inflation , large cash outflow
    estimation of 25 % and 15 % additional donation based on the marketing company past commercial experience, not charity ,uncertainty on the figure

    Non financial
    talk about inefficiency of their newsletter send by post ,is a big waste
    q&A inefficiency and unable engage stakeholder ,new one will better
    only 500,000 poeple in the country , emarketing can international.
    there was a estimation increase in booking , fit to objective .

    recommendation is yes because the charity suffering about income,with the high waste of operation.

    b)managing change about emarking proposal – lewin 3 stage as format , not sure how to answer

    (total 36m)
