Phase 1(B): Choose Your Subject

Understanding how a business operates and what makes it successful, requires knowledge of the accounting process. Accounting involves recording business transactions and, this in turn, leads to the generation of financial information which can be used as the basis of good financial control and planning. Inadequate record keeping and a lack of effective planning ultimately lead to poor financial results. It is vital that owners and managers of businesses recognise the indications of potential difficulties. Remedial action can then be taken.

Marketing is a very important aspect to a business, if you do not have customers you do not have a business. You will explore different stages of the process that a business goes through when developing a rationale and a marketing campaign. You will examine the marketing aims and objectives, understand how to gain market research and interpret that into showing the impact this might have on a business. You will be creative in developing marketing campaigns for businesses using the marketing mix, looking at budgets and timescales

Organisational behaviour looks at how people behave in an organisation, this could be as an individual and/or within a group setting. Many organisations say that their employees are their most valuable resource because of their skills, knowledge and attitudes. As labour is both an expensive and valuable resource, it is important to ensure it is planned and that the best value is obtained from employees contributions.
