...INTRODUCTION: Project Status Reports | The status report formats/examples start on page 3What This IsFive different formats and types of status information that can be used to summarize and communicate project status to the team and Management. * Document formats to capture status on one page and easily hand out, post, or email. * Simple 3-slide set for presenting top-level status to management in meetings * One-page format for summarizing status on multiple projects. Why It’s Useful Regular status reports help ensure that the team has clear visibility to the true state of a project and that Management stays properly informed about project progress, difficulties, and issues, by periodically getting the right kinds of information from the project manager. Frequent communication of project status and issues is a vital part of effective project risk management.The reports should let management know whether the project is on track to deliver its outcome as planned, and must highlight to management any place where their decision-making or direct help is needed.How to Use It 1. Review the included status report formats and select the one that seems most appropriate for your needs, or create your own hybrid. 2. In communication planning with your team and stakeholders during the project front-end, decide on the initial period for the status report and who should receive it. This can be documented in your Communications Plan. 3. Decide on appropriate definitions...

...ggrgegregrgregrg fefe A report or account is any informational work (usually of writing, speech, television, or film) made with the specific intention of relaying information or recounting certain events in a widely presentable form. Written reports are documents which present focused, salient content to a specific audience. Reports are often used to display the result of an experiment, investigation, or inquiry. The audience may be public or private, an individual or the public in general. Reports are used in government, business, education, science, and other fields. Reports use features such as graphics, images, voice, or specialized vocabulary in order to persuade that specific audience to undertake an action. One of the most common formats for presenting reports is IMRAD: Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion. This structure is standard for the genre because it mirrors the traditional publication of scientific research and summons the ethos and credibility of that discipline. Reports are not required to follow this pattern, and may use alternative patterns like the problem-solution format. Additional elements often used to persuade readers include: headings to indicate topics, to more complex formats including charts, tables, figures, pictures, tables of contents, abstracts,and nouns summaries, appendices, footnotes, hyperlinks, and references. Some examples of reports are: scientific reports, recommendation reports, white papers, annual reports, auditor's reports, workplace...

For the SIM campus students: please contact your Tutor or Lecturer to discuss issues related to this Course, including the two Assessments. This document is to aid you in developing a format which will help you to express your ideas well.

...MODULE 1, ASSIGNMENT 3 September 12, 2013 Topics: Performance Management, Financial Management and Financial Reporting Overview In this assignment, candidates get a chance to apply all the steps except for steps 6 and 9 in the Steps for Approaching Business and Corporate Strategy to a small business case. As mentioned previously, these steps provide candidates with a systematic approach for addressing a case involving business-level strategic issues. Applying this approach effectively is one of the important competencies that candidates will learn in the CMA Canada Professional Programs. The starting point for solving a business problem is to analyze the current situation and identify the problems that need to be addressed. A major component of the situational analysis is to take a close look at the environments within which an organization finds itself. One of the methods commonly used in such an environmental analysis is “SWOT” (an acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats), which considers the strengths and weaknesses in the internal environment as well as the opportunities and threats in the external environment. Candidates can refer to the required reading Situational Analysis Tools mentioned below for more information on how to go about doing a SWOT analysis. The next major step is to identify the issues and analyze various alternatives for addressing the major issues. In this case, a shortage of available cash is a major issue and needs to be addressed...
