I’m working on a business discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
- Describe two or three techniques you can apply when delivering an effective bad-news message and why each is important.
- Discuss two or three strategies you can utilize when writing or speaking to persuade others to accept your point of view.
- Discuss at least two DOs and two DON’Ts for writing a convincing and effective formal report.
- Explain the difference between primary research and secondary research. Include how each is used in gathering information for research.
- Provide at least two ways graphics can be used to increase the effectiveness of a presentation and two ways graphics can hinder a presentation’s effectiveness?
- answer one question from the list. You should NOT answer all four questions;
- use two “credible” sources – see the instructions for what sources are considered credible;
- stay within the required length of 250 (minimum) to 350 (maximum) words, which does not include your reference list or title but does include any information used within your answer (in-text citations, quotes, etc.)…the goal is to be thorough and yet concise;
- YOU MUST ATTACH a WORD FILE, it is a requirement that you post directly within the forum;
- apply current APA formatting guidelines, as seen in the most current edition of The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, which can be accessed online at:
- follow the assignment instructions and grading rubric
- within your reference list, you must include a working URL for any full text articles used; all working URLs must take your reader directly to that full text article within Liberty’s online library database. (To further clarify, your reader must be able to directly link to the full text article within LU’s online library database using the URL you include in your thread. If you’re unsure about the specific URL/link, you can copy the entire web address from the top of the browser’s address bar [once you are on the page where the full text of the article appears]).
- there are three authors for the class textbook; therefore, the course text should be formatted in your reference list as:
- Lehman, C., DuFrene, D., & Walker, R. (2018). BCOM (9th ed.). Boston, MA: Cengage Learning.
