It usually contains a brief statement of the problem or proposal covered in the major document(s), background information, concise analysis and main conclusions. It is intended as an aid to decision-making by managers[1][2] and has been described as possibly the most important part of a business plan.[3] They must be short and to the point.

Therefore, the executive summary must cover the major points and be detailed enough to mirror the content yet concise enough for an executive to understand the substance without reading the entire report. An executive summary differs from an abstract. Readers use an abstract to decide whether to read the complete document. They read an executive summary to obtain information without having to read the report in full. The executive summary should be written as a document that can stand on its own and is usually written on one or two pages, depending on the length of the report. It restates the purpose of the report and describes any results, conclusions, or recommendations made in the report so that the reader understands the reasons for the conclusion or recommendations. Acronyms, symbols, and abbreviations must be written out. Tables and figures in the report should not be referred to by number in the executive summary. The audience for an executive summary is receptive to the message, so the writer should assume that the audience wants to know and understand the message. It is written in a formal tone using an impersonal style and eliminating first person pronouns (I, we, our, etc.).

NURU THE PROPOSAL There were 15 million discharge summaries produced for admissions into hospital last year. A staggering 80% of these were found to be inaccurate or incomplete and another 70% of these were reported as being severely delayed on a regular basis. This compromise to clinical care and patient safety is simply unacceptable. Our empirical market research has found that the majority of junior doctors, the principal users of discharge forms, were unhappy with the current systems in place. It has also been reported that on average junior doctors spend more time carrying out admin duties than in formal training and teaching sessions. There are electronic discharge systems present however, these have been described as insufficient as they lack comprehensive coding and in some circumstances...

...the advertising momentum in the months following the most viewed sports event in American television. Should they stick with advertising on TV or try out a viral advertising approach in social media? Their budget wouldn’t allow for both media to be used. Barnard, Vice President at PepsiCo and the General Manager of the Pepsi-Lipton Tea Partnership (PLP), owner of Brisk, was in charge of the final decision and conferred with Tamaro, Brand Building Director for Brisk, on what to do. PepsiCo was the second largest food and beverage company in the world. So at $340 million in net revenues in 2009-10, PLP seemed like a drop in the ocean compared to the $10 billion1 from its holding company, the Pepsi Americas Beverages division. Yet, PepsiCo executives had given a Super Bowl spot to Brisk, over bigger brands such as Lay’s and Mountain Dew, because top management had decided to invest in the brand and in iced tea.
