Academic Paper Metaphorically using your Belbin SPI questionnaire as an appraisal instrument, i.e., a conceptual lens through which you will reflect on your past observations of people and their behaviour while working in teams, you must write an academic paper that addresses the following two tasks. Between the two main sections of your academic writing, you must include an appropriate segue linking the separate sections together. Dr Allan Osborne | KB7036 and AT7026 People in Project Management Page 3 of 6 Task 1 Belbins Team Roles Theory In this section of your Academic Paper, the module leader requires you to write a clear and coherent narrative detailing your opinion concerning the validity of your Belbin SPI questionnaire report and Belbins Team Roles Theory. While doing so, you are required to use published papers you have chosen from primary literature sources in leadership, management, and organizational sciences as the theoretical underpinning for your academic writing. Task 2 People and Behaviour Theories In this section of your Academic Paper, the module leader requires you to write a clear and coherent academic debate detailing the opposing viewpoints concerning the validity of critical theories associated with a single People and Behaviour domain assigned to you. While doing so, you are required to use published papers you have chosen from primary literature sources in leadership, management, and organizational sciences as the theoretical underpinning for your academic debate. People and Behaviour Domain When the module leader posted this assessment brief on the Bb course, he also posted a document titled Assigned People and Behaviour Domains in the Bb courses Content > Assessment sub-folder. If you look at this document, you will see the domain the module leader has randomly assigned to you. You must write your Academic Paper using the people and behaviour domain assigned to you. If you write your Academic Paper using a different domain, you will not have fully satisfied the assignment’s requirements for Task 2 for Assessment Component 002. As a result, the module leader will have to reduce your unconfirmed mark for the Academic Paper. To ascertain the APMs definition of your allocated domain, you need to review the APM Body of Knowledge 7th edition. You can access this publication free of charge by joining the APM as a student member. The APMs website explains how to become a student member. You should note that the APM does not expect you to pay an annual membership fee while you are a student. You are classified as a student when studying this module and your Masters degree.
