assumptions and important decisions, facilitating effective communication among stakeholders

For the effective project management plan the company follow important steps and these
are as follow: Project management approach: For the effective project management plan, the company
should outline overall management approach for the project. This section should describe
in the general terms, the roles and the authorities of the project team members. Company

2013). The company should authorize the additional funding by the project sponsors. Project scope: In this step, the scope of the project management plan is defined. The
company can scope the statement through the project character used as a starting point.
The company should include detailed scope rather than the charter. This includes

the project does and does not. When the plan includes more details then it helps the
company to provide the better production. It also helps to clarify what is include in the

make any type of approval decision. This is effective way to provide oversight and ensure

for the company is to define communication requirements for the project and how the
information can be distributed to ensure project success. It is important for the
organization to manage effective communication for their projects. With the help of
effective and strong communication, the company can avoid management problems.

are analysed using the mathematical and statistical methods. It is important for quantitative
research there should number involved without this quantitative research is impossible (Kaplan,
Norton and Rugelsjoen, 2010).
Research design: It is refers to the overall strategy which is choose to integrate the
different components of the study in a logical and effective way. It is important to addressing the

Data collection techniques methods: Data is normally collected by qualitative and
quantitative methods. Quantitative methods aim to program and tend to use unstructured data
collection to explore the topic. This method have the advantage that it is cheaper to implement,
standardised to camper easily and the effects can be measured. Qualitative method include focus
group, group discussion and interviews. This method is good for foster and exploring the effects
and consequences of program. These methods expensive and time consuming to implement.
Data analysis: It is also know as analysis of data and data analytical. Data analysis is a
process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming and modelling data with the goal of cover useful

graph and charts.
Limitations of research methodology: Research methodology is time consuming process.
It is important for research to minimize the range of scope of limitations through the
acknowledgement of limitations. Selection of data affect researcher method.
Sources of qualitative research: Surveys: Surveys structure by online, by phone and in person. These rely on the same
questions being asked by the same way to a larger numbers of the people. Observations: Observation includes counting the numbers of times that a particular
phenomenon occurs like how much time a particular word is used in interview. It coding
the data to translate it into the numbers.
 Secondary data: For secondary data the company can use the accounts for collect the
information about their sales.
Qualitative research: Qualitative research define which is not include any type of
numbers or numerical data. It include the word, language and also include the pictures ,

photographs and the observations. All the information can be examined in a qualitative way. It is
also the preferred method of investigation. Qualitative research results in the rich data that gives
the in depth picture and it is very effective for exploring the questions like how and why things
have happened. For the effective qualitative research it require the time to build relationship with
the research subjects and always be aware for the prospective (Lutchen, 2011). When the

P6 Appropriate recommendations for the research and data analysis
Research and data analysis is is an essential techniques that enables the company for
draw the meaningful inferences from their data analysis. The Ensono company use the proper
applications for the study design and data analysis (Trevino and Nelson, 2010). It helps the
company to reduce the improper and insufficiency results and conclusions. With help of effective
analysis of research and data the company can find out the proper solutions for the problems
related to the goals and objectives and effectively set the CSR activities. Company apply
research and data to successfully apply CSR activities. Company recognise importance of social
responsibilities to their customers .CSR activities important There are some important
recommendations for the effective research and data analysis and CSR activities these are
follow:
 Environmental efforts: Primary focus of corporate social responsibility is the
environment. Company led towards environment efforts such as green energy usage
friendlily offices and travel polices. Company ensuring that business activities take
responsibilities for controlling impact communication at e-commerce platform.

TASK 4
P7 The values of research to meet the stated objective and learning performance
To achieve sustainable objective of the organisation it is essential for investigator to
conduct proper research. I have identified from the above report that; I came to know about
different software which are used by the organisation to divide work in small task. CSR
activities will give advantage to organisation in order to gain competitive advantage (Trimi and
Berbegal-Mirabent, 2014). To remain in the global market, it is essential to implement different

activities these activities supports organisation to attract their customers Besides that, I have
also learned that while gathering the data through questionnaires response of some customers are
very rudely because they are not showing any interest towards giving any infromation and
reviews about products ans service. I have to understand more activities which can be
implemented by the organisation. With the help of CSR activities, the company can also make
strong position in market and beat their competitors. There are also two methods from which the
investigator can collect appropriate information. From my view point, qualitative method is
good because when the data is not collected in numerical form then it is simple method. With the
help of qualitative method, the company can properly analyse data in an appropriate manner. I
came to know about that my knowledge has been increased that how CSR activity can be
implemented by the organisation in different ways. As Ensono company belong to the IT sector
so it is essential for them to conduct CSR programmes to attract different customers. While
providing any services to customers, it is the responsibility of organisation to take regular
feedback from them so that the company can take appropriate actions for retaining them for
longer period of time.
According to me, research is a process of collecting information by an individual about a
specific topic using different sources like online mode, personnel sources, environmental sources
etc. basically it is learning outcome for constructing knowledge and skills for the definite
purpose. The best part of research study for the employees is that , it is a reputed profession. It
supplies different methods of improvement in order to accomplish success and achievement
(Ekinsmyth, 2013.). The best part of research study for employees is that, it is a reputed
profession. It helps in improving communication of an individual by experiencing different types
of knowledge and visualization. Research provides basic idea of advance thinking process. In
order to perform any research programme, one should keep in mind about the appropriateness,
correctness and effectiveness of the research for the future prospectus. These are different
learning assessment which helps in development and managing success full business and
improving self learning process

CONCLUSION
According to the above discussion about managing successful business with respect to
the Ensono Company. It can be concluded that to operate business effectively several strategies
and methods should be adopted for running the company in an effective and efficient manner.
There are several quantitative and qualitative methods discussed in this session. Proper
suggestions will be helpful for the organization for implementing some extra efforts for the
development CSR activities. Recommendations are the directions and procedures through which
implementation of further process is carried out. Research provides basic idea of advance
thinking abut the CSR activities. These are the above assessment in context with the company.
CSR activities important for the company. It supports company to find out information about the
customers choice and preferences. CSR activities assess the company to fulfil traditional and
legal responsibilities
