Suggestions for Gathering Information to Prepare the Memorandum

(1) Make sure to read Chapters (1,5,6,7) in the course textbook before working on this assignment.

(2) After reading the chapters go back and reflect on (Why Does This Matter?) in Chapter 1 of the course’s textbook. Think about the assigned course readings (Chapters 1,5,6,7) in terms of developing and applying knowledge gained from your academic program (specifically your declared major) to establish credibility expected by industry (professionals within your declared major).

Next – Use *Business Source Complete to locate discipline (your major) specific journals which identify key abilities and attributes that are sought within your declared major in terms of establishing credibility. This information should be linked to the importance of establishing credibility as a basis for effective business communication within the scope of key takeaways outlined in Chapters (1,5,6,7).
