...Guidelines for Preparing Your Executive Report Contents 1. Title Page: the title should clearly and succinctly communicate the central focus of the paper. The name of every person who is to receive credit for the project must appear on the title page. No name, no credit. 2. Table of contents: List of each of the major sections, including references and appendices, and specify the page on which they begin. (-5 points) 3. Executive Summary: Provide a 100-150 word summary of the purpose and outcome of the project. This goes on a separate page that follows the table of content. Bullet points can be highly effective to summarize findings. (-5 points) 4. Body: The structure for the body of the report is described in detail below. 5. References: Whenever you use someone else’s idea or work in developing an argument or providing an explanation, you must cite the author(s). To do otherwise is plagiarism. You can impress yourself, your instructor and client by citing material from CMST 311. (-5 points) 6. Tables and Figures: You may have numerical data or illustrations that you need to present. If so, these things go after the references; tables first, figures second. If it has numbers on it, then it is a table. If it is a graphical illustration, then it is a figure (e.g., pie chart). Number and title each table/figure so that you can easily refer to them in the text of your paper. For example, “As Table 1 shows…” 7. Appendices: This is where all of the materials...

...it is the time of summer internship. Life again changed to as it was during my job after graduation. I started to sleep a little earlier in night and wake up a lot earlier in the mornings. A little time is left after whole day at office and invariably goes into watching movies, chatting with friends, listening to songs or just aimlessly browsing through facebook. Temperature is rising with each passing day. Time in office passes very slow and now i seem to understand Einstein theory of time dilation quite better now. Life in hostel also changed a little as the summer internship started. Almost everybody ask you the same questions for first few days - what is your project about? how many hot chics are there in office?any chances of PPO? blah blah. Sometimes I have to answer the same thing 10 times a day. Many interns from other MBA colleges lodged in our college-hostel and we get to see new faces in the mess during breakfast and dinner. One thing which did not change was taste of mess-food which is as horrible as ever. Jhaji and sharmaji seem to be the real dark-knights, coming in late nights to give some solace to hungry soles. A never changing topic of the small chitchats during dinner is - girls. If somebody sees some girl wearing hot-pants, sweating out in gym then it is his moral duty to entertain others and ask if they also saw her; Then goes on the same process of getting to know her name and trying to find her out on facebook. If she is very pretty (read hot) then you...

...#67766089 University of British Columbia MGMT 390 Section 003 February 10, 2013 Norine Webster At the beginning of the term, shortly after the assignment was announced, I set up and led a few meetings to get everyone started and organized on what needs to be done, during which we discussed the individual and group sections of the paper. My sections of the paper were the value chain of the industry and the supplier section of the porter’s five forces. I had good communication with the team and I helped out two of the other team members in finalizing their sections of the paper. Another group member and myself did most of the work formatting and editing the final paper after everyone had their part completed. Afterwards I was in charge with any last minute spell checks, reference checks and submitting the final report. At the time I thought it would be a good idea to have everyone’s input in deciding sections of the paper. In hindsight however, the initial meetings were a bit redundant as the individual sections could have been assigned since no one had any preferences. My section of the paper was completed a day after the discussed due date that the group set, so I should have spent more time and effort in meeting this goal. The individual work submitted by some of the group members could have used more work, so a lot of time was spent fixing grammatical mistakes and rewriting sentenced to make them more coherent. For Part 2, I will personally do my best to complete my part...

...How to write an Academic Business Report Tessa Owens Writing an Academic Business Report Writing a report may be divided into six broad areas: 1. identification and acquisition of relevant sources 2. preliminary research, which normally takes the form of reading and making notes and possibly visits to organisations for primary data 3. focused thinking about your report 4. writing your report plan 5. writing your first draft 6. producing the final report You should form the habit of looking very closely at the report title at this stage to see exactly what it is asking you. Do not forget that the same report may be answered in a variety of different ways, THERE IS NO ONE CORRECT ANSWER TO ANY GIVEN QUESTION. What is always required however is some kind of evidence to support the points you wish to make, whether it is evidence from a text, a journal, or in certain cases a primary source. At this point you should be beginning to think in terms of the argument you wish to make and the evidence you might use. You will not need to use all the notes you have compiled as a result of your research, but you should never regard your research as wasted even if you don’t use it, as it will increase your knowledge and understanding of the subject which will be reflected in your later work. Sometimes the kind of evidence you have gathered may influence the line of argument you choose to take. At other times you will be clear from the first what line of argument...

...GLADSTONE AIRPORT PROJECT PLANNING REPORT PROJECT PLANNING REPORT Upgrade of Gladstone Airport Background Gladstone Airport services the Gladstone region located some 500 kilometres north of Brisbane and comprising three former local government areas – the harbour city of Gladstone, and the Calliope and Miriam Vale shires. The airport is currently operated by the Gladstone Regional Council following recent council amalgamations and dissolution of the Gladstone-Calliope Aerodrome Board on 14 March 2008. The airport caters primarily for business travellers and freight activities associated with the region’s developed and emerging industrial complexes. Regular public transport (RPT) services are currently provided by QantasLink utilising primarily Dash 8 Series Q400 aircraft. Continuing growth can be expected with over $14 billion worth of projects committed and/or planned in the next 5 years and with large scale stocks of land set aside for longer term expansion in the Gladstone State Development Area. Since 1998 airport expansion has been guided by a Development Plan which the Aerodrome Board updated in 2004 to take particular account of current and likely future aircraft types and stronger growth in passenger numbers than previously forecast. The forecasts prepared for the 2004 plan envisaged that the majority of RPT services would be provided in the short term by the Dash 8-300 aircraft and in the medium to long term by regular scheduled services by 70 seat aircraft such as...

...Business Priorities: 1. Financial Priorities CanGo should sustain and possibly increase their productivity outlook at the same time to attract more investors when they open their initial public offer to generate more capital in shoring up the expansion venture. This would require more resources to be committed. 2. Time CanGo should allot enough time for everyone in the company to enhance the success of their expansion. They should set realistic deadlines for all tasks and goals for completion to minimize any possible negative effects of risks due to not having enough time to provide quality outcome. 3. Manpower with Skills CanGo has to hire additional employees or set-up third party contractors to assist and provide additional help, skills and experiences in meeting workloads generated by the expansion venture if needed. This will alleviate any risk that can be caused by labor shortages. 4. Sources for Games, Video and Audio Streaming CanGo has to gather and secure contracts and licensing from various sources for all their games, video and audio products that will be advertised and sold to their global web customers appropriate to their culture, country of origin and social interests. 5. Additional Infrastructure and Equipment CanGo management has to perform a good thorough expansion plan to analyze whether incorporating more equipment and infrastructure is necessary for the expansion to fully utilize limited resources.
