Detailed Report Guidelines

Objectives of These Guidelines

1. To demonstrate the importance of how ideas are presented.

2. Provide unit participants with a concise outline of the key requirements and elements of the report assessment.

3. To provide a document (i.e.:  THIS DOCUMENT) that models some of the standards outlined herein.

PURPOSE - Success in winning the approval and support of others for your thinking is not just a product of the ideas themselves.  Of equal importance will be the way you present your ideas.

Business reports sell your thinking to both managers and academics, so it is in your best interests to digest the contents of this outline and embrace them.  While the writing requirements may seem stringent, it is recommended that you should bear in mind that these guidelines will serve you well throughout life, not just here at Murdoch.  Adopt them as your own and you will have taken an important step in improving not only the "packaging" of your ideas, but the value of the ideas themselves.

Additional standards such as the Chicago referencing system are also included to address fundamental academic requirements.  While referencing may seem a burden to some, it should be remembered that any business report will require the writer to state the sources of the information in the main body of the report (or in appendices where appropriate).  So it should be understood that we're not actually asking any more of you than would be the case in the business world.  This following content outline will provide current business students with some precise specifications for their report.

Already done the main part just need your help with executive summary and introduction and conclusion part.
