This challenge should be explored in detail, providing evidence from a range of credible academic and practitioner sources, to demonstrate its significance for the organization in different contexts e.g. different countries; different markets; different market segments; offline/online, etc. Relevant theory from the module must be applied to develop the analysis and evaluation. Logical conclusions should be drawn (2250‐words guide only).
