You should also provide examples from the real world and real corporations to illuminate your essay. These must be accompanied by references to the evidence for any factual content used. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Your essay is permitted \u2013 but not required \u2013 to contain tables, charts, graphs and diagrams provided that they can be edited by you within your document. Do not submit any material which you cannot edit in the form in which it is submitted. All tables, charts, graphs and diagrams must have headings and be fully explained either within the table or diagram or elsewhere in your essay. The use of tables, charts, graphs and diagrams will affect your marks for presentation. Whether this effect is positive or negative will depend on the quality of presentation and the relevance to your essay of what you present. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

All words within these tables and diagrams count towards your word count. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The full version of all names and phrases represented by acronyms and abbreviations must always be fully spelt out the first time they are used, followed by the acronym in brackets, for example: \u201cBank of England (BoE)\u201d.
