What are the main change challanges with regard to Brexit that the UK government needs to address and how well are they being addressed

Order Description
The assignment question is that; What are the main change-challenges with regard to Brexit that the UK Government needs to address and how well are they being
addressed?
There is case study You will need to read case study and expand upon this through your own reading for Assignment Task 1. The case study only sets the context for
conducting your own research on Brexit and what this can inform you about leading and managing change. Please find attached the case study.
Question 1; Application of a range of change management theories, models and frameworks to analyse how the government and/or key players have been leading and managing
Brexit [30%]
Assessment criterion 1: Application of a range of change management theories, models
and frameworks to analyse how the government and/or key players have been leading and managing Brexit [30%]
We recommend that you answer this in terms of change as an on-going process, so in this way, you
will be able to identify the major challenges ahead and at the same time reflect on how well these challenges have been addressed so far. Note that Brexit hasn’t
happened yet but the challenges in
relation to preparing the foundations for Brexit have been happening. Here you can also provide
diagrams and tables (excluded from the word count) to illustrate the challenges.
You are asked to relate your answer to “the UK government”. You need to think what this might mean; for example, Theresa May as Prime Minister (equivalent to a chief
executive in business), her cabinet (equivalent to the board) and the “Ministries” they lead (equivalent to business
departments). “Key players” may refer to anyone acting in the Cabinet including the Prime Minister or senior hierarchy of the Civil Service (who act on behalf and are
accountable to government). Note
that you are expected to go beyond and write a report on “the government” not just Theresa May for example.

Examples of challenges:
This is where you need to do some thinking. Take a step back from all the detail. What do you think
the main challenges are? How many are there? How might these challenges be classified? This
requires a judgment on your side. [To help you here, let’s say you are trying to convince someone to
do something. Do you present 3 arguments or 6? Do you present 10? What is the most convincing?
Are there a small number of key arguments which relate to other sub-arguments? How do you
justify the number of arguments you select?]
Try to contextualise the challenges you identify in relation to the change and change-related
literature (e.g., as covered in the module – all the material covered in the lectures and seminars is
relevant; sometimes, the literature may not be about “change management” as a process but is relevant for understanding and implementing change projects; show
understanding, perhaps).
So, a weak argument might be “X is an important challenge”. A stronger argument would be “X is an
important challenge because…” and a stronger argument again will be “X is a key challenge and can be understood in terms of… (see diagram)” or “This challenge
relates to theory Y which suggests.

You need to address criterion 2: An evaluation of what Brexit can teach us about the process of leading and managing change, leading to a set of recommendations about
what the UK Govt might do between now and the UK, exiting of the EU [25%]

In addressing this you need to think about the similarities between leading Brexit and leading change
generally. Change can be led in lots of different contexts including conventional businesses. Try to
show some understanding of these contexts – again, some thinking on your side is required here.
Try to identify what key general principles might be learned and which apply in other contexts.
In putting forward recommendations, a weak recommendation will be: “The UK Govt should do, x, y
and z.” A stronger recommendation would be, “The UK Govt should do x, y and z because…” A
stronger recommendation again would be: “The change literature (being specific of a framework for
example) should do x, y and z because…” or “The priorities of leading Brexit are x, y and z. From a
change leadership perspective, x, y and z are important because…”
Logically, the key principles you identify should be drawn upon to support your recommendations
You also need to address criterion 3: A high standard of academic writing (e.g., logically
structured including well considered introduction and conclusion, evidence of analysis,
synthesis and evaluation; accurate Harvard Referencing and following a report format;
effective use of tables and diagrams [25%]
This is about making sure you have addressed the question and assessment criteria and in an
academic manner. You will show evidence of getting to grips with the material, drawing on the
recommended academic reading and beyond. Be evaluative – how big are the challenges, what
might be less of an issue than is currently perceived (or more of an issue). What has been done well
and less well? Where will the big battles be fought framed within the context of theories of leading
and managing change?
Strong reports will include detailed diagrams and tables. You won’t draw on everything in these
diagrams and tables but will highlight what is important in them or will pick out examples from data
in these diagrams and tables to illustrate principles. The diagrams and tables won’t, in themselves,
act as a substitute for good analysis. You decide how many tables and diagrams to include. Again,
what counts in constructing an argument? Do you cover everything or are you trying to present
what is important? You need to be selective and analytical.
Remember also that you are presenting a report so include a cover page
