Module Welcome

Welcome to BMM5552: People Management

Hello and a very warm welcome. 

I hope that you find this Module Handbook helpful in supporting your studies and that it provides you with all the information you need to know about this module. People management skills are one of the most sought after employee capabilities by businesses today. Companies realise that in order to survive and thrive in today’s environment, they need great people management (and organisational capabilities) which are different from those that helped them succeed in the past. Consider for a moment, if individuals in people management roles or positions of authority/power were not able to manage themselves (i.e., with meaning, purpose, ethics, integrity and inclusion), how then can they expect to manage others? In this context, the need to develop people management capabilities has never been more urgent.  

People are considered to be an organisation’s most valuable asset. Successful companies know and value their staff; know that their employees are a crucial factor to their success; and they work hard to provide attractive pay and benefits, meaningful work, positive and inclusive work environments, and opportunities for growth and development.   

On this module you will engage in lectures, seminars, and individual and/or group activities, in order to gain a critical overview of a range of people management concepts, theories, models and approaches, and critically evaluate their effectiveness. You will have opportunity to demonstrate team working and/or team management capabilities; ability to work productively to analyse and present complex information from research you have conducted; and ability to critically reflect on and appraise your team working/management abilities and identify areas for development.   

This module will provide you with the tools to understand how the people management function of an organisation works, why, and how people and teams are deployed to further the business aims and strategy. The learning is very much led by yourselves, and so the success of this module and your experience, rests on your participation. Please enter into the process with positivity, enthusiasm and make the most of all activities and opportunities offered. 

On the last page of this document, you will see your module at a glance. This document helps you understand your assessment, how it connects to your programme outcomes and to the graduate attributes (skills and behaviours) you will develop during your studies. This handbook is designed to help you understand what you have to do for this module and to explain why you are being assessed in a particular way. This will include how the learning you do, the teaching sessions you attend, and how the module assessment will support you in successfully completing your level of study. 

All assessments included at your current level of study have been aligned against the programme outcomes to ensure you achieve these. These outcomes are included at the end of this document. We have designed your assessment so that it supports you to make meaningful connections across all the content you will study during this academic year. This handbook sets out the key assessments dates so you know when you will need to submit work and when you can expect your feedback. During this module, you will be asked to submit one piece of work for summative assessment. Further detailed information, assessment brief and in-depth guidance is available on Moodle under the section entitled ‘Assessment’.  

On successful completion of your course when you apply for jobs you will be able to talk about a wide range of relevant transferable skills that you have developed in this module. This module will provide you with knowledge, skills, behaviours, and practical abilities, transferable to any potential management role and career, such as the ability to communicate effectively, manage people and resources to an agreed plan. You will also be able to demonstrate your ability to develop your people management abilities, through critical reflection, in response to the changing needs of your role, employer and our economy.

Summary of Content

You will gain a critical overview of the role of the HRM function, and the practice of managing people, and how they both work together. You will gain a critical overview of a range of people management concepts, theories, models and approaches, and critically evaluate their effectiveness.  

Activities involving people management skills (e.g., communication, negotiation, collaboration and co-operation, group/team-working) will develop your abilities. Activities involving individual critical reflection on your personal performance, will develop your awareness of areas for your future growth and development.  

This module provides tools to understand how the HRM function and people management approaches of an organisation works, why, and how people and teams are deployed to further the business aims and strategy.

It is possible that there may be content or discussion within this course that may be difficult for some students. Please look to the module schedule to ensure you are aware of the broad subject content. The module team will flag especially difficult content proactively so that we ensure this classroom space is one that acknowledges that each of us will experience these discussions differently. There are a number of resources that can support you (include Student Space, Student Wellbeing or Samaritans). If you have any concerns about the content of a specific session, please inform the lecturer or a peer and seek support from Student Support who can be contacted via support@wic.ac.uk and via text/phone on 0207 0180 430 between 9 am – 5 pm Mon-Fri and 10 am-4 pm on weekends.

Assessment Brief: 

People management literature shows that effective people management is essential for organizational success, as it leverages the potential of employees to contribute to the attainment of strategic objectives (Lepak & Gowan, 2010).

• Critically discuss, analyse, and evaluate approaches to people management in practice in the organisational context, by using and applying theory, models, and approaches studied in this module to an organisation and/or a manager of your choice, to contextualise your analysis, critique, arguments, discussion, and conclusions.

• Your assignment may include the following structure:

• Introduction and context (500 words)
  • Theoretical Framework (i.e., which theories (leadership theories, ethical theories, motivation theories, learning and development theories, diversity…etc) and why, justify your choices using examples and research evidence) (1000 words)
  • Application of Theories, Analysis, and Discussion (i.e., how, you may link your selected theories with factors influencing their successful application) (1000 words)
  • Conclusion and Recommendations (500 words)
  • References 
  • List of Figures 
  • List of Tables 
  • Appendices

Word Count: The word count for written assessments is as noted above, +/- 10% is allowed. This does not include the references list, bibliography list, or appendices list. If you exceed the word limit, any work after the allowed wordcount will not be marked. Whilst you are not penalised for being under the word count, work that is substantially under the word count will be more limited in meeting the programme learning outcomes.   

Feedback Date: Feedback will be available on Moodle 15 days after the submission date (excluding national holidays, staff sickness and annual leave).   

Referencing: You are required to use the American Psychological Association (APA) referencing style. Please visit the Library guide here for more information APA 7^th Referencing Guide – APA 7th Referencing Guide and here Referencing – Library at Leeds

Trinity University  

All modules will include a session which unpacks the assessment brief, providing opportunities for you to clarify any questions you have about the assessment task. The assessment criteria and rubric will be examined in these sessions to support your understanding of the expectations of the task(s). Your module tutor will provide generic feedback on what a good assessment looks like, common misconceptions, pitfalls, construction of arguments, format, spelling and referencing. You are encouraged to bring selected sections of your work or a one-page plan to assessment support sessions for verbal feedback and where appropriate, peer discussion. Your module tutor will not give any indication of mark or classification for any draft work presented. Where you have received previous feedback, your tutors will encourage you to reflect on this to support your acquisition of knowledge and academic skills development. Feedback on a full draft of an assessment for submissions, prior to the submission deadline, is not normally permitted. 

Use the Assignment Preparation Checklist on the last page before you submit your work.

Academic                                                                                       Integrity

Waltham International College, in partnership with Leeds Trinity University, is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment where students are expected to act with integrity, self-discipline, and respect in all academic and professional activities. Academic Integrity refers to conducting scholarly work in an open, honest, and responsible manner. Students must respect the intellectual property of others by properly attributing and acknowledging sources. Through authentic learning, students are encouraged to develop independent thought and analysis, ensuring the academic standards and value of the University’s awards. It is the responsibility of students to ensure their work upholds these standards.

Academic     Misconduct Academic misconduct involves any form of dishonesty in academic work, whether intentional or unintentional, that undermines the integrity of assessments. Any suspected misconduct will be investigated, and common types of misconduct include:

• Poor Scholarship: Incorrect referencing or misunderstanding of academic standards. 
• Self-Plagiarism: Reusing one’s work without proper acknowledgement. 
• Plagiarism: Using others’ work without citation. 
• Collusion: Unauthorized collaboration on individual tasks. 
• Fabrication: Falsifying data or manipulating academic documents. 
• Research Misconduct: Failing to conduct ethical research. 
• Impersonation: Allowing someone else to assume your identity for academic gain.  
• Contract Cheating/Use of AI: Seeking assistance from a third party or using AI tools to complete your assignment.

Waltham International College and Leeds Trinity University are dedicated to investigating all instances of academic misconduct and applying appropriate disciplinary measures when necessary.

Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence in this module

• You may use generative AI such as ChatGPT to assist you in the process of undertaking the assessment in the following ways: brainstorming, research, planning, feedback, editing. 
• All use of generative AI must be explicitly acknowledged, and any artificially generated content (e.g. images) explicitly labelled, with the source of the AI tool referenced using current APA referencing conventions You can find further guidance on the library website on their AI webpage).
• In submitting your assignment, you agree to disclose the extent to which you have used generative AI in preparing this work, and include evidence of your AI use in your appendices (e.g. dated screen shots of your use of this tool or copy and paste your AI chat into Word). 
• Failure to disclose your generative AI use may result in a 0 for your assignment and a referral for academic misconduct (see the Student Academic Misconduct Policy under Essential Info in the MyLTU app).

You are required to include one of the following statements on your assignment:

Either:

• This assignment used generative AI in the following ways for the purposes of completing the assignment (choose 1 to 5 of the following): brainstorming, research, planning, feedback, editing.

Or:

• This assignment did not use generative AI for the purposes of completing the assignment.

Assessment Criteria

Your work will be assessed in line with the generic marking criteria for undergraduate assessments (see below). In common with many Universities, Leeds Trinity University employs categorical marking to all assignments and assessments. Marks are therefore awarded as follows: –

Academic Support

The Academic Community of Excellence (ACE) provides additional support in addition to Learning Support and is accessible to all students regardless of their academic levels. The ACE Team offers general academic support to help students accelerate their learning progress, catch up with their peers, meet learning standards, or succeed in their academic goals. ACE is placed in the Student Hub, making support easily accessible to all students. Students can contact by emailing at ace@wic.ac.uk.

The module leader will be available by appointment on Microsoft Teams for advice, support and explanation of assessment feedback.

• Feedback is given at multiple points across the duration of the module, in different modes. You should expect, and recognise, that feedback can be given by your peers, verbally in sessions, feedback might be given to the whole module cohort during teaching sessions, and it might also be given in conversation with your tutor.
• Formative feedback doesn’t have a grade attached; it will often be given in your teaching sessions. Formative feedback is valuable as it allows you to improve your subject knowledge for your summative assessment(s) as well as allowing you to practice the type of assessment that you will count towards your final grade for the module.
• You will receive feedback on all summative assessments, these are the graded assessments in your module. You might receive summative feedback during an assessment session, as audio or written feedback.
• Feedback will focus on what you are doing well, and how you can continue to improve your work.

Action Taken and Changes Made in Response to Student Feedback

Based on student feedback, the word count for assignments has been reduced from 4000 to 3000 words, and the assignment structure has been simplified for easier understanding. These changes aim to make assignments more manageable and improve the clarity and quality of student work.   

Essential Library and Learning Resources

The WIC Library has quiet places to study and a relaxing area. We also have computers, printing, and photocopying. You’ll find all your required books and online resources to help with research and referencing skills.

Race Equality

We acknowledge that racism is ingrained across our society, institutionalised within the higher education sector and our university. We recognise that racism is not always overt and manifests in the everyday life of our staff and students; the impact of which is significantly harmful to individuals and our community. We hold ourselves accountable and empower everyone to be anti-racist, challenge all forms of racism and work to dismantle structures that perpetuate racism including challenging ourselves. We are committed to eliminating racial inequality and will take systematic action to address racial inequities. We expect all staff, students, and all members of our university community including partners and stakeholders to embody these values and behaviours.

Assignment Preparation Checklist

This brief assignment checklist is designed to help you avoid some of the most common mistakes made in coursework. You can sometimes lose marks by forgetting some of the more straightforward elements of your assignments. We recommend that you “tick off” each of the points below as you prepare your work for submission. If you need any help. you can ask your module tutor. 

TICK

□     □     □   □   □   □   □   □   □   □

Have you read and understood the assessment criteria? Have you addressed the learning outcomes? Your assessment should clearly demonstrate how you have addressed these in your assessment. Have you kept to the word count? If you are not sure, check with your tutor. Have you demonstrated academic conventions? EG: Show you have supported your arguments using academic literature; you have presented ideas and information which challenges thinking, and you have offered discussion points which extends your own or others’ viewpoints. Have you maintained an academic tone throughout your work? Have you tried to avoid repeating the same words? Have you attempted to use the technical language of your subject area? Have you properly referenced the sources you have used?  Have you checked that the referencing/bibliography in your assignment is in line with your course requirements?
