About Jeremy
I worked overseas for many years in Far East, Middle East, Australia, Europe and USA for large US corporations. During my time as a senior C suite executive I completed MBA in Finance, MA International Strategy & Analytics. I always remember the time I was afforded by both colleagues and business people helping me with my academic dissertations by providing real context helping me put theory into real scenarios. As I progressed in my career I too helped many colleagues with their degrees or business programmes and enjoyed the experience and being able to make a difference. Having both experienced many business sectors and geographic and cultural differences I now consult on the many factors that need to be considered not just in writing a business plan but also pulling together an academic piece of research and supporting evidence. I have the academic background and understanding coupled with a long and extensive business career that adds that additional knowledge to help a student obtain the best results.

Introduction • Goal: Clarify the assignment requirements. • Review assignment brief: objectives, assessment criteria, structure. • Identify submission deadlines and required word count. 2. Exploring Topic Areas • Goal: Help students understand how to select a relevant topic. • Break down the broad subject into subtopics (e.g., marketing → digital strategies, branding, consumer behaviour). • Brainstorm key business areas aligned with the assignment theme. • Use tools like PESTLE, SWOT, Porter’s Five Forces to trigger ideas. 3. Research Skills Development • Goal: Teach students how to find credible and relevant sources. • Demonstrate how to access university library databases (e.g., Business Source Complete, JSTOR). • Distinguish between academic sources, industry reports, and news media. • Discuss how to use Google Scholar, company websites, and industry publications. Activity: • Provide a sample topic and walk through a basic research process. • Encourage students to create a research log to track useful articles and sources. 4. Identifying Key Business Issues • Goal: Train students to evaluate and select meaningful issues. • Discuss how to link theories and frameworks to real-world business problems. • Teach how to assess relevance, impact, and scope of an issue. • Use case study examples to practice issue identification. 5. Skills Reflection • Goal: Reinforce learning and plan next steps. • Summarise what was covered. • Encourage students to define their chosen topic and start drafting a research outline. • Assign a small task: e.g., bring 3 academic sources and 2 industry insights for next session. Learning Outcomes By the end of the sessions, students will be able to: • Interpret assignment briefs with confidence. • Generate and refine relevant business topic ideas. • Conduct targeted academic and industry research. • Select and justify key issues in a business context. • Lay a solid foundation for a structured and insightful assignment.
