Select an organisation of your choice and critically analyse it using two different metaphors. You should present your organisational analysis in a written essay.

PLUS

After you complete this analysis, critically reflect on your task by addressing two areas: first, what is the importance of a multi-perspective approach to analysing organizations? And, second, what have you learned about yourself doing the task?

Word length 3,500 (including references). Please note that you should devote approx. 500 words to the reflexive part of the assignment.

Please CONSIDER the following when planning your essay:

1. A brief introduction of the organisation you have selected.

2. A brief discussion on the aspects of the two metaphors (from Morgan's Images of Organization) that you wish to develop in relation to your reading of the organisation.

3. A brief discussion of why you have chosen these two metaphors over the others in Morgan's text.

4. Your analysis of the organisation using the metaphors

5. A critique of the two metaphors in relation to your reading of the organisation (this may include a discussion of the benefits and weaknesses of each chosen metaphor).

6. A complete list of references following the Harvard style. In your reference list include web links to the organization and any other internet sources that you used.
