For this discussion, please refer to “Writing a Bad News Message,” which was one of the reading materials for week 7. You should also review the link from Purdue University on “Examples of Bad News Memos,” which is one of the reading resources for week 8.
Then do the following:
Step 1: Post your research report as a Word or rtf attachment (this is so a classmate can read it);
Step 2: Choose a classmate’s research report and post a response telling him/her that you are reading his/her report – only 1 reader for each report, please;
Step 3: Write a memo to tell the person whose report you have read that the company/community/etc. WILL NOT be implementing the recommended solution to the problem he/she has proposed. You will have to be creative in offering reasons why the solution cannot be implemented (money, opposition from stock holders, higher command or management, etc., are typical reasons for such decisions).
