Discussion Post
Post an executive summary of your Comprehensive Project in the body of a post in this Discussion Board (do not use attachments). An executive summary is a 10% synopsis of a larger document that outlines the purpose, planned processes, actual processes, findings, and recommendations for the project. Chief executive officers (CEOs) often read and assess executive summaries before deciding to read entire reports. Consequently, the summary must be a high-quality narrative that demonstrates the significance of the work, addresses all the important issues being undertaken - the seven GP questions are important issues - shows, the objectivity of research and analysis underpinning the report, and establishes the credibility of the resulting conclusions
Attached is a summary I tried to write but was not good enough for professor see his notes below:
Additionally, an Executive Summary must cover the entire project and all of the important elements and address the five major issues: 1) purpose, 2) process, 3) modifications to process, 4) findings, and 5) recommendations. See my DB Posts entitled, DB ES Help and DB ES Basics.
Your short-term goals are rather obvious, this report is due by all groups. You provide no specifics for your market analysis and medium-term goals like product manufacture and distribution negotiation. Your long-term goals seem viable, there is a need to cover customer satisfaction and employee benefits. However, you mention but provide no more information on introduction of products.
In short, more detail is required to provide a useable executive summary.
