Identify ANY three real-life projects, preferably from your protessional working environment.

Tips for choosing your projects:

The most suitable projects are those that you might, reasonably, have authority and agency over. This ensures you will have a more detailed understanding of any complexities involving stakeholders, formal and informal authorities, and issues of power and interest.

• The projects need to focus on areas that could provide improvements in your department in terms of quality of work, working processes and efficiencies, or the customer/client experience.
• You will not be required to actually execute the project.

Ethical and confidentiality declaration:

O For ethical and confidentiality reasons, you will need to replace the real name of your organisation, and possibly department, with a fictitious name.

You must also not use the real names of people in the organisation, or customers, clients or external organisations.

Required:

1.1 Provide a statement in which you explain the reasons for ethical and confidentiality considerations including that the real names

organisations and all stakeholders have been replaced). (1)

Step 2:

Write two paragraphs for each of the projects you identified in step 1.
