Critically analyses the different stakeholders (for instance local community members, visitors/attendees/tourists, event organisers, public bodies) that affect and are affected by the event, including their different interests and perspectives
Assignment task

Task:

Produce an applied case-study, focusing on one event, which:

Provides a critical analysis of the context and setting in which the event operates (for example will you focus on the political context? The cultural or social context? Will you be examining an event within a community setting, mega event, hallmark event?);
Critically analyses the different stakeholders (for instance local community members, visitors/attendees/tourists, event organisers, public bodies) that affect and are affected by the event, including their different interests and perspectives;
Evaluates the impact(s) of the event on society and stakeholders (i.e. social, political, economic and environmental impacts)
Uses one or more specific theoretical perspectives in your analysis.

It is important that you identify the setting in which the event operates through size and scale (i.e. private events, local or community events, major events, hallmark events, mega events), form and content (i.e. cultural events, festivals, heritage commemoration, parades and processions, religious events, political and state events, arts and entertainment, performing arts, literature and visual arts events, meetings and conventions, trade and consumer shows, sports events, business events, fairs, non-for-profit events).

Stakeholders may be any individual, organisation or group that has a relationship with the event (Bowdin et al., 2001). You may choose from a variety of stakeholder groups, for instance a host organisation, host community, media, sponsors, co-workers or event participants and spectators. You are allowed to examine as many stakeholder groups as you want (although remember that you must be able to provide a detailed discussion of how each stakeholder group is affected by the event) but you must include a minimum of 2 stakeholder groups. However it is essential to identify stakeholder groups you a) are interested in exploring, and b) can research using published material.

Examples of topics you can pick for the case study may be as varied as: “The 2014 FIFA World Cup and the socio-economic impact on Rio De Janeiro’s Favela residents”; “ The Notting Hill Carnival and its impact on the Caribbean diaspora”; “The socio-economic legacy of the 2004 Summer Olympics on the city of Athens”, “The impact of Liverpool’s city of culture on host residents”, “The contribution of wine festivals to the Champagne region’s economy”, “The socio-political impact of Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade on the LGBT community”. You need to decide the scope and focus of your case study!

Successful candidates will:

Provide a detailed discussion of the context of the event and the stakeholders being examined. You should state whether you will focus your analysis on the political, cultural or social context of the event. Particular emphasis should be put on how issues such as culture, ethnicity, class or gender are relevant to the production or consumption of the event (note: you can decide to focus on one or two areas e.g. class and ethnicity, you do not have to cover everything we touch on in the module);

Apple Orchard Assisted Living

As the manager in charge of several important projects at Apple Orchard Assisted Living, Janelle Wilkins has confronted some behavior and leadership problems with the project team leader, Emilio Jones, whom she assigned to develop a new staffing plan for the nursing service. Jones has been on the job approximately 6 months, and Wilkins has had several meetings with him. He is leading a team of six people drawn from the assisted-living facility staff.

Wilkins recently sent Jones this memorandum:

Mr. Jones:

You mentioned to me that you have had a difficult time getting people to work as a team on the staffing project I assigned to you. You also mentioned that you feel frustrated because I haven’t given you enough direction or backed you up in trying to replace two of the team’s members.

The purpose of this memorandum is to strongly suggest that you look to yourself as a source of these problems rather than elsewhere. It is important that you avoid complaining about things that aren’t being done for you and start doing things on your own. Don’t always look to others as the source of your problems. Working with people is a difficult challenge.

You have to stand or fall on your own. You cannot expect me to settle all the problems that arise. You have to develop confidence in yourself and learn to work with the people on the team you are leading. If your problems persist, it will be necessary to replace you.

Review Case Study 14-1, Apple Orchard Assisted Living, in the Managing Health Services Organizations and
Health Systems textbook and answer the listed questions. Questions in all case studies may have been
modified from those found in the text; read carefully. Please preface each section of your response with the
question number.
As you work through the case, try to consider the perspectives of both Wilkins and Jones.
1. What was communicated in the memorandum? What was not communicated in the memorandum?
2. What effect will the memorandum have?
3. How else might Wilkins have communicated with Jones?
