This report examines the strategies and initiatives employed by Morrison's to cultivate a diverse and inclusive workforce. It begins with an introduction to the concept and its importance, followed by a project management plan that outlines the project's aim, objectives, research questions, and a literature review. The report then details the project's scope, time frame, cost considerations, and resource allocation. A Gantt chart and work breakdown structure are included for project visualization and management. The research methodology section discusses quantitative and qualitative research methods, primary and secondary research, and sampling techniques used in the study.

TOPIC
“To determine the types of Strategies and Initiatives companies put in place to build a
diverse and inclusive workforce”. A case study on Morrison’s.

one of the largest supermarket organisation established in UK and it’s headquarter situated in
Bradford, England. In the present scenario, thousand numbers of employees are engaged in
operations that belong to different backgrounds. Moreover, report highlights on project
management plan and the aspects of Gantt chart as well as WBS to complete organisational
activities properly. In the last, small scale research is also conducted for understanding aspect of
business.
TASK 1
P1) Formulate of project aim and objective

TASK 2
P4) Small scale research by using different research methods
Research is a scientific research of the exclusive examine material which might be used to
accomplish the primary requirement of mission and it's miles used to attain the better result with
a purpose to establish the statistics and figures to make the new end (Ling and Robinson, 2018).
It is performed through the researcher to adopt the creative findings and to enhance the know-
how of about the precise aspect. There are sorts of research that is number one and new with help
of primary research and secondary wherein the end result is already calculated. This might be
shaped as like qualitative and the quantitative for completion of research with outcome of
meaningful results.
Quantitative method- The purpose of this is to explain the general situation and benefit
the beneficiary potentialities and it is the method that is more broadly speaking inductive and

used to formulate the hypothesis. It is a textual content based method in which the revel in
information could be regarded and it's far inside the shape of tabular information, mathematical
system and so forth (O’Donovan, 2018). There may be no statistical test can be contained that is

to explain information in reveal manner.
Dis-advantages

complexity for understand average response.
 Sometimes at time of formulating longer results bias results are generated which create
complexity for organisation.
Qualitative method- It is a research this is connected within the statements and it is the in
the main deductive process wherein the belief will be developed on the idea of pre special
concepts. In the statistical tools may be used to measure the analysis that is largely depend on the
size tool (Panicker and et. al., 2018).

using the researcher to get the validate enquiry of some distinctive subject matter. In this the
information can be amassed inside the shape of particular questions and presents personal
statistics because it takes quite a few time as nicely.

Secondary resources- It is the information that is accumulated from the researcher from the
already posted facts that might be as from the journals, newspaper, monetary statements, articles,
books and lots of other as well (Rao and Roberts, 2018). It helps to get showed that studies could
be carried out in excellent way.
