struggling to explain how people
professionals create value. You're not
alone because this question trips up so
many students who focus too narrowly on
HR tasks without showing the bigger
picture. In the next few minutes, I'll
show you exactly how to approach this
question so you can hit those marks and
demonstrate real understanding. Let's
get straight into it.
Most students lose marks here because
they simply list HR activities without
explaining how these actually create
value. Another common mistake is
forgetting that the question asks about
three different groups which are people,
the organization and wider stakeholders
and then only addressing one or two of
them. Students also tend to give generic
textbook style answers instead of
applying their response directly to the
scenario provided. Finally, many forget
to consider ethical principles, which

expects you to weave throughout your answer.
answer.
The command verb here is explain, which
means you need to show understanding by
describing how and why something
happens, not just what it is. You need
to demonstrate the connection between
people, professional activities, and the
value these create for each of the three
groups mentioned.
A low pass might list some HR practices,
whereas a pass will show clear links
between activities and value creation.
To achieve a high pass, you'll want to
show deeper insight into how these
connections work in practice and
acknowledge that value creation looks
different depending on context and circumstances.
Think about value creation across the
full employee life cycle, which includes
areas such as selection and hiring, on
boarding, developing employees, and
performance and reward practices. You

Consider researching models and
frameworks that explain how these
practices contribute to organizational
success such as improved retention or
productivity. Your core learning
materials will point you toward relevant
theories and wider reading will help you
find academic perspectives on the people
Don't forget the wider stakeholders
element, which might include customers,
communities, or even society more
broadly. You could explore how
engagement practices and employee
relations contribute to value beyond
just the organization itself. Consider
looking into concepts around job
autonomy and how this creates value at
multiple levels. Ethical principles

research frameworks that help explain
how maintaining ethical standards
actually enhances rather than limits
value creation. This wider perspective
is what often separates good answers
Begin with a brief introduction that
defines what value creation means in the
context of people practice and signals
how you'll structure your response. Your
first main section could address value
for people, covering areas such as how
selection, onboarding, and development
practices benefit employees directly.
Use the peel structure throughout, which
is point, evidence from theory, example
from your scenario, then link back to
how this creates value. Your second
section might then explore
organizational value, considering how
practices like performance management
and engagement contribute to business outcomes.
Your third section should address wider
stakeholders and how people practices
create value beyond the immediate
organization. Throughout each section,
weave in how ethical principles support
and enhance value creation rather than
treating ethics as a separate bolt-on
point. Consider using a short concluding
paragraph that draws together the
interconnected nature of value creation
across all three groups. This structure
ensures you address every part of the
question systematically and makes it
easy for your marker to see you've
The scenario gives you specific details
about the organization's context,
challenges, and priorities. So, use
these throughout your answer. Look at
what the scenario tells you about their
current people practices and any issues
they're facing. Then connect your
explanations directly to these
specifics. Generic answers that could
apply to any organization will
significantly limit your marks. Even if
your theory is solid, when you explain
how a particular practice creates value,
illustrate it with how this would work
specifically for the organization in
your scenario. This application of
theory to context is what demonstrates
