INTRODUCTION
Globalisation is the process by which organizations develops the international influences
or develop the business on international market. It can be considered as the process of interaction
among the people, companies and government worldwide. Also this research will help in
developing a complete understanding about the impact of the globalisation on different business
functions within the organisation. This Research paper will provide the Research questions that
are aimed at analysing the performance of the company in an global market. Along with this, the
study will provide the Aims and objectives based on which whole report will be conducted in
order to perform the survey from the targetted audience (van Bomme, 2018). This Research will
be accomplished when the Researcher will create the effective plan in order to conduct the
questionnaire to get collect and analysis the large amount of data.
In addition to this, The study advances the knowledge in three significant ways. First, it
collects the data on the effect of Globalisation on the market. It will also help in analysing the
data on the total employment by the various business functions. With the collection of these data,
The analysis can go beyond the recent globalisation which estimate the number of new
employments and jobs that are potentially impacts, and begins the systematic examining. Second
consists of the study which examines the impact of the current recession on Jaguar company.
Finally it will provide the data collection methodology which allows the researcher to link the
result from the organizational based survey (Um and Kim, 2018). The data will be released and
help the respondent to collect the variety of data regarding the impact of Globalisation on the
Jaguar company and this data will be helpful in finding the answers of the research questions
from the employees point of view. Here the study will briefly survey the research on
Globalization, its impact on the domestic job as well as its potential impact on service
employment along with the documentation of the data limitation. This review highlights the
projects which fill an important gap by collection the data on where the organization are locating
the specific business functions.
Although, This report will help in producing a project management plan which consists
of various different types of considerations for conducting the effective research. It will help in
analysing the cost, scope, quality, risk and resources required by the researcher in order to make
the effective plan for the project management. It will also help in producing a comprehensive
project management plan milestone schedule via structure Gantt chart in order to accomplish the

tasks within specific time frame and and the stages require to meet the aims and objectives of the
study. The research helps in collecting the data from employees who help the researcher in
finding the correct sources in order to determine the impact of the Globalisation on the various
business functions (Bond-Barnard, Fletcher and Steyn, 2018). As it will also help in evaluating
the impact of globalisation on the sales and marketing of the Jaguar industries.

Background of company
Jaguar is a Brand of Cars which is made by the Jaguar Land Rover. It can be considered
as a British Car builder company which is owned by the Indian builder Cans Tata Motors since
the beginning of the 2008. The owner of the company is the auto-mobile manufacturer, also it is
the privately owned company until it becomes merged with the the British Motor Corporation.
Now the new company was called British Motor holdings. Then further in year 1968, Jaguar
company joined with the Leyland Motors in order to become the British Leyland (Bresciani,
Ferraris. and Del Giudice, 2018). Jaguar company nought the daimler company which further

becomes the brand for some Jaguar's Saloon Cars. Also this company has won many Sports car
Races. The research is based on the Globalisation of the Jaguar company on the Globalised
market. Along with this, The firm is likely to pay £1bn in the deal, although analyst will be
keen to see the exact price and terms. Moreover, The Jaguar and Land Rover employ about
16000 staff at plant across the west Midlands and Merceyside.
However, at the time when UK (United Kingdom) is likely to exit from EU (European
Union), The operations of the Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) gets adversely affected. Along with this
it leads to the adverse impact on the sales as well as profitability of the firm. They are highly
concerned with cost in account of imposition of tariff barriers and job loses in the sector when
the Britain votes for an exit.
Rationale
This research is conducted to carry out the survey on the impact of Globalisation because
due to the increased technology within the market (Brunswicker and Chesbrough, 2018). Every
business seeks to expand its business operation within national as well as international market.
However, it is not possible to easily expand and develop the new business in global market. So
one of the most important thing to conduct this study is to determine the impact of the
Globalisation on the sales of the Jaguar which are greatly influenced at the time of Brexit. Also,
The main objective to carry out the research is to analyse the positive impact of the
Globalisation on the economy of the the country. Along with this, this report is conducted to
analyse the cultural and ethical implications of the place where the company is operating its
globalised business.
P2 Project management plan
Researcher will keep your responses highly confidential with respect to different
perspective (De Rezende, Blackwell and Pessanha Goncalves, 2018). The project plan will
consists of various different types of considerations such as Costs, Scope, Time, Quality,
communication, resource, Risk. All such aspects which need to be considered while carrying out
the research are as follows:
Costs
It includes all the comprehensive expenses required to carry out the meaningful and
successful research. The cost incurred during arrangement and purchasing the resources for the
project. This cost is basically associated with all such requirements which are required during the

data collection for the research. Such such as cost associated with data gathering tool, taking a
legal permission from the respondents which requires a legal formality and signed documents.
Along, with this some cost associated with the project is rent of building, payables to the
employees, and one of the most important cost incurred is requirement for the communication
tool. Below provided table will help in analysing the total cost which is associated with this
project:
Particulars Cost of Project management
Building Rent $18000
Employees payment $28000
Communication cost $10000
Paperwork required for legal permission $56000
Scope
The main scope of of the study is geographical location or the ideological inclination of
the study which is aimed at carry out the research which helps in identifying the impact of the
Globalisation. This element of the Project management plan helps in indicating the limitations of
the investigation process (Zhou and et.al., 2018). Along with this, present study, the researcher
will collect the information about the declining sales and profitability of the Jaguar company due
to the advancement of the business within the international market.
Time
This Element of the project management plan helps in dividing the tasks and activities
into the specific time frame (Frølund, Murray and Riedel, 2018). It allows the researcher in
effective and efficient accomplishment of the tasks. As the Time management is one of the
important skill which contributes towards the successful research. This allow the researcher on
timely execution of the activities in order to determine the long term as well as short term goals
within the organization. This help the researcher in completion of the project timely. The time
management for the various tasks and activities can be diagrammatically represented in the
project via gantt chart.
Quality

It can be considered as one of the important aspect as maintaining the quality in carrying
out the research is one of the important aspect. It ensures the reliable and validate information
and data collection from different respondents. Moreover, Quality within the project
management plan helps in bringing the clarity in the information which eliminates the chances of
error within the research. In addition to this, in order to meet main aims and objectives of the
study, it is very important to obtain the quality based data gathering.
Communication
This element help the researcher to gather the data and information from various
respondents in order to get the proper results (Harmon, 2019). In order to circulate the
questionnaire to various respondents, it is very important to choose best communication source
in order to get the reliable information from the employees. It also allows in smooth flow of

ACTIVITY 2
P 4 Research Methodology
Research methodology is the process of data collection which helps in making the
effective decisions. This method allows the researcher to to understand the impact of
globalisation more accurately as per the different aspects and point of views provided by the
multiple respondents.
Research philosophy
It is the process by which the data gets collected and gathered in order to find out the
aims and objectives of the study. Research philosophy deals with the formulations of the beliefs
as well as assumptions. There are four types of research philosophy such as pragmatism,
Positivism, Realism and interpretivism. Among this, Pragmatism is mixture of the positivism and
interpretivism which mainly helps in identifying single scope for the project. Positivism provides
the view for the researcher to acquire knowledge via observation. On the other hand Realism
research philosophy is based on the independence reality and ideas of the human kind.
Among all such research philosophy, the researcher have adopted the Interpretivism
research philosophy in order to carry out the positive economic, cultural and ethical implication
of the globalisation on the Jaguar company.
Research design
It can be termed as the method which is used in analysing and collecting the measures
that allows the researcher to address the specific problems (Kerzner, 2019). This process by the
researcher to combine different components which helps the researcher in handling them
effectively. There are mainly two types of research design such as Exploratory research design
and conclusive research design. Exploratory research design which allow the researcher to
explore the research question but this method cannot allow the researcher to analyse the study in
a depth manner. However, the conclusive research design method allow the researcher to
generate the appropriate findings which helps them to reach the conclusion or effective decision
making.
Therefore, in this research, conclusive research design has been used in order to find out
the appropriate results of the study. In the present study researcher have selected the descriptive
research design under the conclusive research design method thus it helps in collecting the exact
information in order to accomplish the aims and objectives of the study. This method can

efficiently and effectively helps in analysing the economic, cultural and ethical implications of
the Globalisation on the operations and sales of the Jaguar company.
Research Approach
It can be termed as the plan or a procedure which consists of various different steps in
this (Martinsuo and Hoverfält, 2018). Although, it allows the researcher to convert the
assumptions into data collection or data analysis which helps in finding the appropriate results.
Research approach can also be categorised into various categories such as deductive research
approach, inductive research approach and abductive research approach. The deductive approach
is mainly helpful in designing the strategy which ensures the testing of the hypothesis. It also
allows the researchers in measuring the quantitative concepts and also helps in generalizing the
concept thus it helps in finding the result in a hypothetical way. On the other hand, Inductive
Research approach helps in observing the research deeply which helps in analysing the research
in a depth way. It also involves the pattern which help the researcher in identifying the aims an
objectives of the study. However, adductive research mainly helps in describing the negative
aspects of other approaches as well.
This report is based on the deductive research approach which aimed at attaining the aims
and objectives of the research. This approach helps in accomplishing the positive economic,
cultural and ethical implications of the globalisation that impacts on the operations and sales of
the Jaguar company at the place where the company is internationally expanding.
Data collection
Data collection is the process which is used to collect the data and information from
various sources in order to find the solutions to the research (North and Kumta, 2018). It helps in
gaining the evidenced information which allows them to control the data collection which are
mainly conducted to carry out the survey via circulation of the Questionnaire. Also there are two
types of data collection methods generally used such as Primary data collection and secondary
data collection. Primary data collection can be conducted via surveys, questionnaires, interview
questions etc. This is one of the popular method which generally help the researcher in
conducting the surveys. On the other hand Secondary data collection method help collection the
data and information via books, articles, newspaper etc.
This study has carried the primary data collection method in order to acquire and analyse
the information (Polonsky and Waller, 2018). Also, thematic data analysis is performed in the

present research. Along with this, Questionnaire is prepared in this research to identify determine
the impact of globalisation on the economic, cultural and ethical implications.
Data analysis
It can be termed as the process which mainly helps in transforming, inspecting and
cleansing the data in order to get or discover the meaningful and useful information. It helps in
collection of the data from various respondents in a statistical manner. Generally there are two
types of data analysing techniques such as qualitative and quantitative data analysing. In this
qualitative approach which helps in collecting all the non numeric information via various
different kinds of methods such as videos, surveys and interviews etc. This met hod help the
interpreter helps in analysing the primary source of data that helps in finding the appropriate
results in order to meet the aims and objectives of the research (Sirisomboonsuk and et.al.,
2018). However, the quantitative data analysis allows the researcher in investigating huge data
which is one of the systematic approach helps in collecting and determining the reliable source
of information.
This research is based on the thematic data analysis under quantitative data collection
method. So in this study a survey is organised among the staff members and this research is
aimed at collecting data from 20 employees as a respondents. Thus it helps in determining the
main goals and objectives of the this study.
Sampling
It can be considered as the problem which helps in arranging and controlling the huge
data which is randomly gathered in order to collect the reliable source of information. This helps
in analysing the statistical data in order to get the predetermined information (Tonchia, Tonchia
and Mahagaonkar, 2018). Generally there are two types of sampling techniques that is
probabilistic and non propagandistic. In this research, probabilistic data sampling technique is
used which helps in collecting the large data from chosen group of people.
Ethical considerations
Ethical considerations are one important considerations which allow the researcher in
conducting the fir practices. Such ethical considerations are:
 The data and information collected from the respondents need to be protected and
secured.
 Researcher need to take full consent of all the participants.

P 5 Data Interpretation
It is a process of transforming, cleansing, modeling and inspecting the data with goal of
discovery the useful information which help to support the decision making. It has multiple
facets and approaches for encompassing to discover the technique under the variety of name that
can use in the decision making.
