UQBS recommend Harvard style; this can be found on the library web site and on Blackboard for this course. If you do not reference properly, it may be interpreted as plagiarism.
The following are examples of plagiarism where appropriate acknowledgement or referencing of the author or source does not occur:
Direct copying of paragraphs, sentences, a single sentence or significant parts of a sentence;
Direct copying of paragraphs, sentences, a single sentence or significant parts of a sentence with an end reference but without quotation marks around the copied text;
Copying ideas, concepts, research results, computer codes, statistical tables, designs, images, sounds or text or any combination of these;
Paraphrasing, summarising or simply rearranging another person's words, ideas, etc. without changing the basic structure and/or meaning of the text;
Offering an idea or interpretation that is not one's own without identifying whose idea or interpretation it is;
A ‘cut and paste' of statements from multiple sources;
Presenting as independent, work done in collaboration with others;
Copying or adapting another student's original work into a submitted assessment item. Submission of assignments on-line submission only – in word document file (no hard copy). Suggestions for attaching cover sheet Olde school method: 1.  My suggestions is for you to print a hard copy of the form, 2.  Each member sign it, 3.  Scan or take a picture, then 4.  Paste the scanned page or picture on to the Word document. Tech savvy method: (each member must have Adobe software) 1.  Use the place signature function, each member place their own signature, name, and date 2.  Pass it on to next member and so forth 3.  Paste it on to the Word document.

Details explaining this referencing technique may be found on the library website: https://www.library.uq.edu.au/research-tools-techniques/referencing-style-guides https://www.library.uq.edu.au/_/sites/default/files/storage/webfile_read/files/referencing/harvard_6_July2014_ 0.pdf The referencing style guides from the website above are also found on Black Board in the assignment information menu. • There are various ways of setting out references / bibliographies for an assignment. • “Harvard Style” is a generic term for any referencing style which uses in-text references such as (Smith, 1999) and a reference list at the end of the document organised by author name and year of publication. There is no manual of the “Harvard Style” and there are many versions of the “Harvard Style”. For example, the commonly used APA Style is a “Harvard Style”. In this guide, we are using a “Harvard Style” based on an Australian style manual (AGPS style) but now revised by Snooks & Co, 2002. The style is based on the author- date system for books, articles and “non-books”. Based on style manual for authors, editors and printers revised by Snooks & Co. 2002 there is a distinction between a bibliography and references.  FOR A Book MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 1 Page 4 of 28 MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide Team Experiential Assignment and Presentation (30% of Final Mark) Mini Culture Immersion Analysis Assignment (Consist of 3 Parts) Overview The goal of this project is to experience, observe, and reflect about your reactions to the disorientation of being in a new cultural environment. The activity is based on the premise that culture shock is a natural part of the process of adapting to a new environment, and that the negative and/or positive experience associated with it can be managed by recognizing and reflecting on them. The purpose of this exercise is to provide a small dose of “culture shock” in order for you to reflect on the experience and to consider the coping mechanisms you can develop in order to prepare yourself for your global career. It is an active learning assignment, thus part of the assignment is to think about the activity and choose one that will enable you to abstract learning concepts, develop a topic, and research which you will share with your peers as part of the peer learning experience. So doing some research about the activity and topic will be important before undertaking the activity. This immersion experience is to be conducted together by the team and experienced as a team (in Australia) where the environment chosen is extremely culturally foreign to all or at least 2/3 of the team members. This can be an ethnic neighbourhood, a cultural or other community centre, a house of worship, a hospital, etc. Together as a team, all members must spend at least 2 hours immersed in this culture—as a participant in the activity, so choose something with a relatively high degree of interaction with members of that cultures. As much as possible, attempt to immerse yourself directly in the activities of your chosen cultural milieu. Keep a notebook to record your experiences, thoughts, and feelings in this “foreign” environment. When your team end your experience there, recall the experience. For example, depending on your interests, the location and activity you choose, it may be one of the following (as a team): 
Participating in an unfamiliar religious ceremony; attending an (ethnic) church service delivered in their native language.
Participating in an ethnic or traditional formal event, e.g., weddings, rites of passage ceremony, etc.
Visiting a nearby small town or ethnic neighbourhood and speaking with local residents about their life there; or
Spending an evening at a gathering of an unfamiliar ethnic (e.g., Chinese, Russian) or other cultural team (e.g., homeless—if you have never been poor, gay—if you are straight and unfamiliar with gay culture, country club—if you grew up poor); attending and interacting in a feminist action group (if you are a conservative male). You should attempt, as much as possible, to select a location and activity that makes you react, “I wouldn’t go there!”, “What would I do there!”, and in general seems to be challenging and far outside your typical comfort zone. Remember, you wish to use this incident to inform others about a cultural concept, theme or issue underlying the encounter - not merely a story telling exercise. Team Written Research Assignment – (worth 15% of your final mark; overall approximately 3000 words; 10% latitude) 1) Description of mini-culture shock experience (no more than 1000 words; in essay format)
During your cross-cultural encounter, identify a concept(s) or events to develop as a research topic. 
Describe the concept(s) or events that are different to what you are used to, and analyse how you think those behaviours are relevant to managers or business situations. o You may include: o Who were involved? Include a description of people's cultural and professional backgrounds (if possible). o Relevant information, such as context (the scene and any important environmental factors). o Describe the encounter and significant critical incidences, if appropriate your expectations. o What information was lacking, or what change occurred during the encounter, confusion over roles? 2) Cross-cultural analyses of the experience (approximately 2000 words; in essay format)
By using appropriate theories and/or frameworks relevant to the course, write an essay that analyses, explains your/your team’s experience. What can you learn from this analysis that you did not already know?
You may include
Emotions your or your team encountered, how did you/your team feel?
What would you/your team like to have done or said that you were not comfortable at the time? MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 1 Page 5 of 28
Discuss how the events you observed and participated in can be abstracted and applied to managing across cultures in a domestic or international organisation. It can be related to the culture(s) you encountered.
E.g., What lessons can be applied to management and/or international business practice.
Each team will be required to conduct further research to identify an emic concept(s) from the activity. Information gained from this research can be the basis for a role-play to be presented when the team presents. In short, emic concepts are culture specific concepts that are only applicable within that culture thus cannot be used to analyse other cultures. Your marks will be dependent on how you develop the concepts/topics, analyse the concept(s) or events and application of their relevance in management situations. This assignment is worth 30% of your final mark; it consists of three parts.
Part A: The written component should be approximately 3000 words (10% latitude), not including references and appendix (Weight: 15%). Due in week 6, this written assignment is linked to additional parts. Submitted on-line via Turnitin in Word document; ONE assignment per team.   Part B: Team Oral Presentation of the experience (Weight: 7.5%; approximately 12-15 min.; date to be determined in week 2), and   Part C: Team Teaching Lesson/Role Play/Skit (7.5% approximately 3-5 min.) to be presented on the same day of presentation. Note: The teaching role play/skit is not a re-enactment of the experience, but rather based on abstraction of concepts the team learnt during the cross-cultural experience. o The role-play should be based on concepts you abstracted from the experience and what you found in your research. So develop a role play that teaches the class something about that concept in a cross-cultural setting. o It is not simply are re-play of your cultural immersion (mini culture shock) experience – it must include management concept(s). All students in the team will receive the same mark for the written assignment, presentation and teaching lesson/role play/skit An opportunity to evaluate the contribution of team members will be provided at the write-up due date and after the presentations. This peer evaluation may result in the increase or decrease of individual marks, as such will be taken seriously.
Each student rates the contribution of all students, including self. 
We will determine the total mark for the contribution for each student and determine the average rating within the team.   Average, above average and below average
An individual with an average rating will receive the “team mark” 
Individuals with above or below average ratings will have their “team mark” moderated. Have fun with the assignment, but treat it seriously!

MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 12 of 28 MGTS 7329 Managing Across Cultures Individual Cross-Cultural Work Adjustment Assignment - 30% of Final Mark; Approximately 3000 words (in essay format  10% latitude) . The assignment must be submitted to Turnitin via Blackboard in Word document. Task and objective The objective of the assignment is to learn about cross cultural work experiences and/or general adjustment processes of working in different a culture or cultures. Thus analyse the applicability of management concept(s) across cultures and/or issues that face people when they are placed in a new work environment in another culture or cultures. The project requires that you interview a person(s) who has had work experience in another nation apart from their home nation for longer than six months (Eisenberg et al., 2013).  The interview will be the basis of a case study on how culture affects work and/or general adjustment to work environments in Australia or other nations. Students will need to be creative to develop the topic. Participant criteria Participants to be recruited are individual(s) who have had work experience in another nation apart from their home nation for longer than six months. As such, the interview participant can be someone the student knows who has had managerial and/or supervisory work experience in another nation other than Australia. However, the interview participant cannot be the student’s parent(s) and/or relatives. Recruitment procedures There are two options to recruit interview participant. Option A: Students can recruit potential participants by way of acquaintance. (Please do not approach lecturers at UQ) Option B: Students can recruit potential participants by approaching a company and asking the company to refer a candidate that fits the participant criteria. (Please do not approach lecturers at UQ) Step 1: Step 1 will apply to students who chose Option B above (via company) The student will approach the company by contacting by sending the human resource manager or personnel manager the prepared introduction letter (attached in this application).Once the company consents to participation (Company Project Consent Form) and refers a potential interview candidate, the student will contact the candidate. Step 2: Here after, the steps will apply to all potential participants. Each interview candidate will be provided with an information sheet that outlines the task for the assignment (attached in this application). Each student is required to answer any questions the participants have. Potential interview candidates are also allowed to contact the lecturer. The lecturer’s contact details are found in the participant information letter. Step 3: After each potential participant has understood the projects goals and their involvement in the project, as well as had an opportunity to ask questions. Each interview candidate is then required to sign the Individual Participant Consent Form. You must attach this consent form to your submitted assignment, if not; your assignment will not be marked! Each participant will be assured that the analysis and information provided by the interviewee will be confidential. Therefore, you are not to share any information provided by the interview participant including the final write-up with anyone apart from the lecturer. The interview is to be conducted outside of work hours unless the organization agrees that the interview can be conducted during work hours. Eisenberg, J., Lee, H. J., Brück, F., Brenner, B., Claes, M. T., Mironski, J., & Bell, R. (2013). Can business schools make students culturally competent? Effects of cross-cultural management courses on cultural intelligence. Academy of Management Learning & Education, 12(4), 603- 621. MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 13 of 28 Which company should I approach for Option B? It is normally expected that you will locate a manager for study and/or an organisation to approach to assist you in finding a manager for study. It may be an employing organisation, an organisation where you were previously employed, an organisation, which your parents own or work in, or one where you have another connection. Approach a responsible person when seeking permission to conduct the project. Normally this will be the Chief Executive of the organisation or the Human Resource Manager. Advise the CEO or manager that you wish to do some research on an individual in the organisation, and provide him or her with "Company Information Sheet" which explains the nature of the exercise. (Make sure you write your own name at the appropriate point in the Company Information Sheet). Re-iterate that the interview is to be conducted outside of work hours unless the organisation agrees that you can interview the individual during work hours. Answer any questions about the project to the best of your ability. The manager needs to sign Company Project Consent Form before you interview anyone. (Add the necessary identifying information to the top of the consent form before the manager signs it). If the manager does not want the organisation to take part, his or her wishes must be respected, and you must find an alternative organisation. If at any stage you run into problems, feel free to contact Dr. Pekerti for advice - preferably during consultation hours. MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 14 of 28 Information to be included in your written project The project should consist of the description and analysis of one or more aspects of organisational behaviour concepts covered in the course. The project will normally: 1.  Provide relevant information concerning the participant's (interviewee) native culture. 2.  Provide relevant background details of the individual and their job/organisational task; 3.  Describe the phenomena and organisational concepts under study, e.g. adjustment, motivation, performance, communication, and/or cultural concepts, etc. 4.  Analyse relevant differences and/or similarities between management and/or organisational practice in Australia versus management and/or organisational practice of the participant’s native origin, or another nation that he or she came from. 5(a). Analyse and critique these phenomena and/or events in terms of (a) theories and principles learned on the course; 5(b). Provide ideas you may have about "good organisational practice" for dealing with expatriates, sojourners and/or migrants. 6.  If appropriate make recommendations for the organisation and individual for managerial adjustment processes. a. If so, include expected outcomes from these suggestions. 7.  If appropriate you may wish to collect information by interviewing members of the person’s family keeping a formal record of what they say (you must get their written consent as well. However, if the above format does not suit, alternatives may be acceptable. If you want to try something different, see Dr. Pekerti to discuss it. 8.  Questionnaire(s) 9.  In your project, after you make your analyses, discuss the limitations of your study. 10.  Append interview transcripts (questions and answers) and/or original interview notes. Transcript is to be appended & included via Turnitin in Word document. 11.  All consent forms. Note: The assignment will not be marked unless consent forms are included in the assignment. If you are conducting interviews via the telephone or e-mail participants are able to “sign” their consent form by adding a specific statement in the e-mail. See “ INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPANT PROJECT CONSENT FORM – VIA E-MAIL” on page 31. You must attach the actual e-mail from the individual, with all the header information! I.e., not just a typed version of the letter. MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 15 of 28 Ethical issues relating to the project While your enquiries may be worthwhile from your own point of view, remember that there are others involved. The people you study have certain rights, which it is your duty to respect. In particular, they have the rights to be informed of the purpose of the study, to refuse to participate if they wish, and to privacy and confidentiality of information. The University of Queensland Ethics Committee that reviews all research projects involving human participants to ensure they are conducted ethically. The Committee has already given approval for this class project, but students must follow precisely the terms and conditions that have been agreed. Included in your Assignment Briefing are 1.  Website address to National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Research Involving Humans http://www.health.gov.au/nhmrc/publications/humans/part1.htm Note: you are to follow this guideline in the strictest sense. Please note that the ethical procedures not only protect participants from unwarranted intrusion etc., it also protects you and the University in the unlikely event of legal action by participants who felt that they had not been properly dealt with. 2.  Copies of participant information sheets and consent forms, which you will need to use while gathering information, see below. MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 16 of 28 How to proceed 1.  Think carefully when choosing an organisation to refer you to an individual. You may use again an organisation that you have already used for other course projects. 2.  Make sure the interviewee understands that any interviews you conduct will be confidential to the interviewees, so you will not be able to pass on any of the information. 3.  Prepare carefully for interviewing. Make sure you have a focus for the interview, and a rough schedule of topics to be covered, and/or questions to ask. At the same time, remember that an interview is primarily a chance to let the interviewee talk, and be prepared to listen to novel material that may increase your insight. 4.  When you contact interviewees through an organisation, make sure they understand that the manager has agreed to the organisation taking part in the study. 5.  Prior to your interview, make sure that the interviewee has understood the “Individual Participant Information Sheet” and has been allowed to ask questions. Make sure you write your own name at the appropriate points in the Individual Participant Information Sheet”. Make sure that the interviewee has signed the Individual Participant Consent Form. (Add the necessary identifying information to the top of the consent form before the interviewee signs it). 6.  Keep as good records as you can of the interviews. If the interviewee agrees, you can record the interview. If you are not clear afterwards what was said, or find that there is additional information you need, do not be afraid to call people up a second time. Note: The goal of an interview is to uncover the participant’s point of view. 7.  Make sure you are constantly relating your interview material to theories as described in your textbook and other readings. 8.  When you feel you have gathered the information you need and completed your analysis, write it up in the format suggested above, or something like that format. Remember that this project is designed to be read by your examiners, not by people in the organisation, so you should feel free to "tell it like it is", even if you wish to be critical of the organisation or people within, it. Your examiners guarantee absolute confidentiality for this material. At the same time, if you wish to protect the confidentiality of those involved, make a note of this in the beginning of your project write-up. 9.  This, the project on which your 30% marks for the course will be assessed, should generally be approximately 3000 words (10% latitude). Diagrams and Appendices will be additional to these limits. 10.  If applicable: Those that approached organisations to recruit their participant may be asked to provide a report back to the organisation. If you have been requested to provide a summary of your project. You should prepare a report designed to go to the individual who first gave you permission to conduct the study. This should:   Be brief - never more than two pages;   Be a summary of your main project;   Ensure that the guarantees of confidentiality you have given are respected;   Be phrased so as not to give offence;   Be attached, in draft, to the Assignment, and not sent to the organisation until, it has been approved by your examiners. (Note, however, that you will not be assessed on this report). Note: Before any report is sent to the organisation and/or the participant, your examiners should approve it.

I would like to introduce the student officially and explain the nature of their assignment. The student’s name is ______________________________________________________________. Contact detail: ___________________________________________________________________. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________. ___________________________________________________________________. The objective of the assignment is to learn about cross cultural work experiences and/or general adjustment processes of working in different a culture or cultures. Thus analyse the issues that face managers and/or workers when they are adjusting to a work environment(s) in another culture(s). The project requires that the student named above interview individual(s) who has had work experience in another nation apart from their home nation for longer than six months. The interview will be the basis of a case study on how culture affects work and/or general adjustment to work environments in Australia or other nations. Participation on this project is completely voluntary; therefore, your company is under no obligation to participate. The interview should last approximately one to two hours outside of work hours. A follow-up interview may be required should the student have additional questions, however, this is dependent on the individual’s discretion. If your company can assist the student by referring him or her to someone in your company that fits the interview candidate description please let the student know by filling in a consent form and sending it to the student or phoning the student. The student will then contact you or someone whom you have referred to assist the student to make an appointment, and interview them on their own time. MGTS 7329 Assignment Guide: Assignment 2 Page 19 of 28 It should be noted that by signing the consent form, your company consents to a staff member being approached to participate. However, the decision to participate in the interview project is entirely at the discretion of individual staff members. We hope that there will be a mutually beneficial outcome to the study. We recognize that all information given to the study will be treated in commercial confidence and that you may wish to restrict the publishing or use of any information gained during the study. The student will comply with all company policies, procedures and protocols and health and safety requirements for visitors while on site. It should be noted that the process of adjustment to a new culture, generally, involves some level of emotional stress. Therefore, the individual may experience some discomfort while recalling his or her experiences during this adjustment period. This is a common phenomenon and participants will not be traumatised by the interview recall, as such should not be alarmed by the discomfort. Should you agree to participate, as we hope you will, we would require your signature to the accompanying consent form thereby confirming agreement and conditions on participation. Thank you very much for your time and help in making this study possible. If you have any queries or wish to know more about the project, please do not hesitate to contact the student. Alternatively, you can contact me.
