We've reached a pivotal stage in your company's development for our Management & Organisations
course. Effectively outlining the tasks detailed below is what distinguishes a professional enterprise
from an amateur one. The sooner you adopt a professional approach, the healthier your company's
finances will be.
Your task:
• Understand Your Company: Reflect on your company's main activities and business model.
You should already have an idea of its size and the principal departments/positions within it.
• Focus on Process Management: This week, we’ll concentrate on process management which
directly influences the customer experience. Initially, put yourselves in the customers’ shoes,
identify the primary value (value proposition) they expect from your company. Then, think
about the processes through which this value reaches your customers.
• Identify processes
Think about the main activity and business model of your company. You already know the approximate
size of it, and what the main functional areas are. These are all important for creating value for the
customer, but obviously, from a customer’s point of view, functional areas are less important. So, this
week, first, imagine that you are your customer, identify the main value (value proposition) which you,
as a customer, would expect from the company (the reason/expectation based on which a customer
would choose your business instead of the other similar ones), then, based on what you already know
about your business (and on the theoretical materials in the Moodle lecture and the textbook), think
about how you deliver this value to your customers.
Identify 2 key (with external customers) and 2 support (with internal customers) processes of your
organization. (For three-member companies: Identify two key and one supporting process. / For five
member companies: 3 key and 2 supporting)
- Everyone should present one process from the company’s processes (5 member teams: 3 key/2
support, 4 member teams: 2 key/2 support. 3 member teams: 2 key/1 support).
- Introduce the Process chart or Flowchart and explain the process using as many terms from the
study material as possible.

• Can the mentioned process lead to customer satisfaction? If yes, please explain why, and if
