is important  \nThere are approximately 2.73 million businesses in Australia. Of these, the vast majority are relatively small and have fewer than 20 employees. These are often sole traders or partnerships. Other businesses are set up as companies, social enterprises and government business enterprises. Wesfarmers is one of Australia’s largest companies, employing around 118 000 employees. These employees might work for Bunnings, Officeworks, Target, Kmart or one of Wesfarmers’ energy, fertiliser or insurance interests. All of these different types of businesses have objectives and stakeholders with vested interests in the business.  \nManagement is the key to the success of a business. This means that there must be efficient and effective coordination of all the efforts of people and other available resources to achieve business objectives. In this topic you will be studying different types of businesses, their objectives and stakeholders, areas of management responsibility, management styles and skills, corporate culture, and the relationships between each of these.  \nCONTEMPORARY CASE STUDIES  \nFor the purposes of VCE Business Management Units 3 & 4, students are expected to be able to reference contemporary business case studies from the last four years.  \nStudents are expected to be familiar with the two mai","cbCaiomSDvDv3I0B","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiomSDvDv3I0B","pdf",39865473,82,"English","# 1.1 Overview\n## 1.1.1 Why it is important\n# 1.2 Types of businesses\n# 1.3 Apply your skills: Analysing and discussing social enterprises\n# 1.4 Business objectives\n# 1.5 Business stakeholders\n# 1.6 Potential conflicts between stakeholders and corporate social responsibility considerations\n# 1.7 Extend your knowledge: Stakeholders and corporate social responsibility\n# 1.8 Management styles\n# 1.9 The appropriateness of management styles\n# 1.10 Apply your skills: Management styles\n# 1.11 Management skills\n# 1.12 The relationship between management styles and skills\n# 1.13 Corporate culture — both official and real\n# 1.14 Apply your skills: Styles, skills and corporate culture\n# 1.15 Review","[{\"question\":\"What should students be able to do by completing Unit 3 Area of Study 1 Outcome 1?\",\"answer\":\"Students should be able to analyse key characteristics of businesses, identify stakeholders, explain management styles and skills, and describe corporate culture.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the two main types of businesses students are expected to know?\",\"answer\":\"The two main types are manufacturing businesses and services businesses.\"},{\"question\":\"How do stakeholders-related conflicts link to corporate social responsibility considerations?\",\"answer\":\"Potential conflicts between stakeholders are considered alongside corporate social responsibility considerations, highlighting how businesses manage stakeholder interests.\"}]","Business Management Unit 3 Area of Study 1 - Outcome 1 | PDF",1789903883,207]
