Your task is to review the literature relevant to the Course case study: Genocide in Rwanda:

Leadership, ethics and organisational ‘failure’ in a post-colonial context. The case focuses 

on the organizational factors that played a role in “failing” to prevent genocide in Rwanda. In 

particular, it focuses on the interplay between key leaders and geo-political relations. You 

should review the literature related to decision making in organisations 

A literature review is an examination of the relevant writings in a particular field or topic, not 

just a summary of the chapters and articles you have read. Your review might incorporate 

individual and group decision making behaviours, models and processes in an 

organisational context. In the review, you should also express ideas, concepts, and 

arguments in a logical and coherent written form consistent with academic standards.

The overall purpose of written assessment is for you to apply a broad and coherent body of 

knowledge in a particular context. We will assess you and give feedback on your ability to 

critically review the literature, analyse, consolidate, and synthesise knowledge in a clear, 

coherent, and scholarly manner.
