You have spent a lot of time discussing all the concepts and frameworks that are applicable to this unit and
understanding of business strategy however, you have discussed them rather than apply them to the case
study.
You have considered a valid range of frameworks within the first section, however, you have not utilised them
to analyse the organisations internal capabilities and environment, failing to meet P2.
You have done the same with P3, you have discussed Porters 5 Forces as well as other models and
framework’s however, there is no application to the organisation.
You have met the P4 criteria, discussing a range of concept’s and how they could be applied to the
organisation to present strategic planning for the organisation.
When you attempt to correct this assessment, ensure that you apply the frameworks to the case study rather
than describe what they are intended for. You clearly demonstrate an understanding of what you have
discussed, its disappointing that you have not applied them to the organisation
Sample Solution
Results from several studies suggest a higher rate of depression among obese children than among children of normal weight. In addition to depression, anxiety and low-self esteem have also been found to relate to obesity in children and adolescents. A study by Grilo et al. (23) demonstrated that âthe greater the frequency of being teased about weight and shape while growing up, the more negative oneâs appearance is regarded, and the greater the degree of body dissatisfaction in adulthoodâ. 8. Miscellaneous: Orthopedic problems, such as slipped capital epiphyses and Blountâs disease, occur in obese children. Approximately 50% to 70% of children with slipped capital epiphyses are obese. Obese children are also at a higher risk for developing gall stones, pseudotumor cerebri and obstructive sleep apnea. EVALUATION OF THE OBESE CHILD: Obese children often present to the Pediatrician/pediatric Endocrinologist with a concern about a hormonal cause of obesity or secondary to consequences of obesity eg. Concern about gynecomastia or embedded penis in males(pic1), irregular periods, acne or hirsutism in females and acanthosis nigricans(pic2) in both sexes. A detailed history and physical examination is in order to elicit any cause of obesity and evaluation of consequences should be done depending on the age and degree of obesity.>
