Assignment Task Description:

Businesses create value through their activities in various ways depending on the purpose of a business. This assessment allows you to map how value is created inside and outside a business. With a shift to the stakeholder model of business and the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that assist business link with larger societal goals, combining value chain mapping and SDGs can be a useful approach to expand the impact and value of businesses.

You can choose a local business with whom you have engaged as a customer or employee, or one you have seen online or in your local area. Your chosen organisation must not have mapped the SDGs as a strategy. It must have a website in English and you are required to provide the link of your organisation in the Introduction of your report. Your chosen organisation must not be one we have analysed in the course modules or workshops, or one listed in the Purpose Wheel in Module 3.
