There are multiple steps and proven strategies that will help you write your Business Administration&nbsp;thesis impressively.&nbsp;</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">1. Manage Your Time&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Time management is a key to completing a long project efficiently. You need to focus on effective time management to divide your writing procedure into different tasks and then prioritise these tasks considering the deadline. Breaking your time down for a thesis in business administration can be done properly in the following ways:</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Consider the project deadline&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Break up the thesis process into small tasks in an imaginable way&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use any available schedule tool like a calendar&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Maintain a health schedule balance&nbsp;</li></ul><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There is a book,&nbsp;&ldquo;From Proposal to Defence: Navigating the Thesis Writing Process&rdquo;&nbsp;written Prof. Dr Balasubramanian Thiagarajan. It represents a rough time allotment for different tasks in the thesis writing procedure.</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">2. Follow the Institute&rsquo;s Requirements</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The next best and proven tip is to follow your institute&#39;s guidelines. For this purpose, first, you have to read your instructions carefully, and if there is any term which seems unknown to you, ask your supervisor about it for better understanding. When you understand the guidelines, you will be able to articulate your thesis according to the supervisor&#39;s expectations and increase the chances of being distinct.&nbsp;</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">3. Choose the Thesis Topic Wisely</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This is the most basic but very difficult step in writing a thesis. It will take some days, some weeks or months. It all depends upon your dedication towards your project. Choosing business administration thesis topics carefully will determine the rest of the thesis writing procedure. While choosing a thesis topic, you have to consider the elements:&nbsp;</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recent research topics&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Preview previous studies and research&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recognise the research gap</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Data collection available sources&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Focus on your personal interest&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Also, evaluate your supervisor&#39;s speciality&nbsp;</li></ul><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">4. Do Proper Research&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">After choosing a topic, the next is to conduct extensive research on your selected topic by reading a business administration thesis sample to collect enough information and ideas for writing a thesis. In this way, you first need to identify which type of data you require to mention in the thesis, either primary or secondary data. <u fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">According to Mobility Academy</u>, you can collect your primary data by observation, experiment, surveys, and self-assessment,&nbsp;as&nbsp;represented&nbsp;below:</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><img src="https://images.cademy.co.uk/2e39c2b3-d53c-4f02-b288-69956dd8f61f/aebb2860-1bd2-49dc-b096-50142e711bb7/original.png" alt="Do Proper Research " style="color: rgb(16, 24, 64); width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style="color: rgb(16, 24, 64); width: 100%;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">You can collect your secondary data by reviewing existing literature reviews, going through libraries, and searching Google Scholar for the latest and authentic research data regarding your topic.</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">5. Mind Mapping Your Ideas&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">A&nbsp;mind&nbsp;map&nbsp;is&nbsp;a representation of your ideas, words,&nbsp;tasks, concepts, or items arranged around a central concept in&nbsp;the shape of a diagram.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Mind mapping is all about generating ideas and collecting them in a diagram while representing different tasks of thesis writing to cover the central concept and subject matter. For mind-mapping ideas, the following steps will be fruitful for you;&nbsp;</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Centralise the subject matter.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Write key features and important points around it&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Create a connection between the central keyword and the important points&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Line up branches to connect, then&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use to write single keywords instead of writing whole sentences.&nbsp;</li></ul><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">ISG Siegen gives an example of mind-mapping ideas in their article&nbsp;<u fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&ldquo;How to write a thesis (Bachelor, Master, or PhD) and which software tools to use.&rdquo;</u></p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">6. Create a Robust Outline&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Creating an outline will give you a framework for writing your thesis in a natural flow from start to end.

<p>What do engineers and project managers need to know of finance? 'Nothing - leave it to the accountants!'</p><p>No, no, no!

It develops their skills in understanding financial and management accounting.</p><p>Accountants may not always like it but a major part of their work is to be the 'servants of business' and to gather, compile and present your figures. So you must understand the figures - they belong to you, your processes or projects. There are many reasons for maintaining accurate accounts. This course focuses on the strategic issues (those over-used words) - what figures reveal about the drivers of business and what they reveal about the day-to-day issues that accountants bother you with. The course will enhance your understanding of finance and of the accounting issues which affect your projects, production and technical areas of business.</p>This course will help you:<ul><li>Understand the business world in figures - make sense of what the accountants are telling you</li><li>Appreciate what drives business - and how this affects your role in your part of the business</li><li>Relate your activities to the success of the business - through figures</li><li>Gain the skills to advance in management - financial awareness is a 'must have' if you are to progress in your career</li></ul><section>

A combination of excellent customer service skills and savvy sales awareness techniques will increase our chances of a successful outcome for both parties.</p><p>The programme features the unique INBOUND model, to help remember the key principles for effective inbound telephone sales:</p><p><b>I</b>nitial impressions</p><p><b>N</b>eeds of the customer</p><p><b>B</b>ring them with you</p><p><b>O</b>pen up the conversation</p><p><b>U</b>nderstand the triggers</p><p><b>N</b>arrow down the solutions</p><p><b>D</b>ecision time!</p><p>The programme also covers how to deal with difficult calls and challenging people - after all, every complaint is a sales opportunity!</p>This programme will help participants:<ul><li>Create the perfect interaction with any customer making contact by telephone</li><li>Make every call count</li><li>Build rapport quickly in any situation</li><li>Handle difficult calls and challenging people</li><li>Create sustainable and profitable relationships</li><li>Increase your sales conversions</li></ul><section>
                    <h3>1 The inbound sales process</h3><ul><li>Each customer who contacts us will be at a different stage of the sales process. Some might be making general enquiries whilst others will be ready to commit, having made most of their decisions already. Sales and customer service people need to be ready to find out the stage the customer has reached before helping them to make the right decision for them</li></ul> <h3>2 Engaging with the customer</h3><ul><li>Having clarified where the customer is on their journey to making a purchasing decision, our next responsibility is to create and build a trusting relationship on both sides.

Chynna Clayton Bio
Keynote Speaker
 

Empathetic, strategic, and meticulous about the details, Chynna Clayton has built a career enabling some of the world’s most influential leaders to excel in high-stress environments.
Chynna is the founder and CEO of Matriarch Made Development, a consulting firm that helps organizations develop high performing administrative teams and identify and address overall operating structure
and events logistics inefficiencies. From helping leaders figure out their onboarding, communication flow, event logistics and how to further develop the talents of their teams, Chynna supports leading organizations in creating a systematic approach to tackling business/events challenges and bottlenecks.
Prior to Matriarch Made, Chynna worked in the personal office of Barack and Michelle Obama as their Director of Travel and Event Operations. Her career also includes administrative roles at Disney and the White House where she served as “body woman” to Mrs. Obama during the Obama Administration.
Chynna graduated from University of Florida with a B.S. in Event Management and Political Science and a minor in Business. She currently resides in Washington, DC with her wife, Retired Naval Chief Petty Officer, Katina Hoyles.
Chynna was featured in Michelle Obama’s latest book, The Light We Carry

“She could adapt in all types of environments, remain­ing unflappable in the face of change. On any given day, I might go from having a conversation with a group of students at a school to filming a television show or recording a podcast. I could meet with a world leader or the head of a philanthropic organization and then have dinner with A-list celebrities. It was Chynna facilitating every move.”

Real Estate Development cash flows require greater skill and flexibility from Analysts, and an ability to work with simultaneously with project partners. Value add and opportunistic property investments are complex both in their initial scope and their cash flow projections.
This course will show delegates how to appraise projects in Excel, incorporate and communicate updates as they happen and ultimately understand how to convert an opportunistic property investment into a core asset that can be sold on.
Residual models (profit & site) are demonstrated first to illustrate the main components of any scheme and the traditional methods of evaluation such as profit on cost ratio, rental yield and interest cover. Development cash flows are then constructed in detail looking in particular at phased income as well as fixed, variable and incidental construction costs and their impact on the net cash flow. Additional performance metrics are calculated including geared IRR and return on equity.
Development financing can be trickier than straightforward senior debt investment financing. This is because finance is often required in stages. The brought forward carried forward method demonstrated on the course, is the easiest way to deal with programmed debt drawdown functions and rolled-up interest.
The assessment of project specific risk is arguably much more important in development schemes. Sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis are covered in the final section of the course.

Bitesize Masterclass with Sophie Chapman
Sophie Chapman
EA to Steven Bartlett 

Although Sophie initially aspired to be a talent agent, she swiftly realised that her career passions lay within the administrative/operational aspects of working life. 

Following her graduation in Entertainment Management from LIPA in 2008, she gained extensive work experience across renowned entities such as Sony BMG and Sky One, operating within the spheres of TV, music, radio, and the events industry. Her pivotal entry into a PA role came while supporting musician Eliza Doolittle.

After five years, Sophie opted to move home to Liverpool and accept a contract supporting Sir Dave Brailsford of Team Sky. Once complete, Sophie received an offer for a position based in the US with an A-list musician. However, her journey led her to discover her "forever role", providing support to Steven Bartlett.
Steven, the Founder and former Group CEO of Social Chain, is a multifaceted individual—a published author, podcaster, entrepreneur, and presently, the youngest-ever Dragon on BBC's Dragon's Den. Sophie has been instrumental as Steven's Executive Assistant, operating on a global scale, in both private and corporate realms for six years.

Whetstone Communications, in association with comms2point0, is delighted to bring your another free webinar to support your learning and development.
Our aim is to boost interest in using evidence and improve levels of data literacy among not-for-profit communicators.
For this session we're delighted to be welcoming Shelley Rawlings, Strategic Communications and Campaigns Lead at Buckinghamshire Council. 
Session Outline
Shelley and colleagues scooped the first ever Best Use of Data award at the 2023 UnAwards  for a campaign that delivered a tangible benefit for some of Buckinghamshire’s most vulnerable residents. 
The Helping Hand campaign supported Buckinghamshire residents to get the support and advice they needed from the council and local partners.
Using data to really understand the target audience, and drawing on specialist colleagues, Shelley achieved a 240% increase in alternative fuel applications, a 59% increase in applying for EBSS, and over 2,000 payments made.
Judges commented on the “hugely impressive and efficient campaign”, which made full use of internal and external data and in-house expertise. “What really impresses is the way she personally embraced the power of data to deliver real-world results in an efficient way.”
In this session Shelley will talk about her approach, give some tips for others looking to take a more data informed approach, and answer your questions.
Who should attend?
People working in local government and not for profit communications
Data owners in organisations keen to understand how they can support effective communications campaigns
