This is a substantial piece of writing which:
Initially requires you to collate the presented case material, and then further build the case study material, from the basics provided, using your chosen management topic as the expander of the theory, or practice, or an issue in management, that you wish to explore in relation to this ANZ Banking Corporation case study, and or the banking industry itself.
Diversity
Critically examine the concept of workforce diversity, and the implications for current management and workplace practices in ANZ in Australia, and offshore.
Consider that within many companies there is a difference between the espoused theory and the reality of the practice of workforce diversity.
Alternatively you may consider the concept of diversity in relation to the customer base. Who is traditionally lent to and why? And how the management of ANZ and the banking industry is looking to strategically extend their lending into much more diverse customer sets? What questions and issues does this raise for the managers who implement these strategic diversity decisions
