Firstly we need to say Well Done! You have made it this far. Hopefully you are tracking the way you want to and it is only a few short months before we finish the content and you can revise for your exam.
Unit 4 has 2 outcomes and focuses on Human Resource Management and Change Management. These are extremely important for all organisations. Every organisation can have the same type of equipment and same amount of money but they can’t have the same employees. Getting the best and keeping the best can give any organisation a competitive edge.
It is important that you don’t forget everything your learned in Unit 3. Lots of that content will cross over to here. The management styles, management skills and culture are all the same. The course has built on your knowledge throughout the year and unit 4 is no different.
Unit 4 can be where students drop away but stick with it. You are only a few short months away from the end. Don’t let all your hard work slip now. This is where the best accelerate towards the end so make sure that you are on top of things.
