homework

You are preparing to write a research proposal that will lead to a short research report. The topics you can use for this report should come from the textbook that deal with diversity in the workplace and the subsequent issues. This is a proposal that will also feed into the short research report and presentation coming up. Look at this as educating your "office" on some important topic related to the workplace, workers, clients, etc. Your report will be educational while making recommendations for improvement and/or change.

Here are grading criteria for the research proposal.

1. Type this as a memo and address it to your instructor.

2. Include headings in the memo:

  • Overview (topic, definition, and background information),

  • Issues (business related problems related to topic),

  • Research (types of sources to support research),

  • Audience (who needs to know this), and

  • Call to Action (conclusion and request to move forward).

3. Be precise in your writing and get to the point. Provide necessary details.

4. Check your spelling and grammar.

5. Proposal should not exceed one page.

6. Topic should be researchable and lead into the short research report where you will be making recommendations for improvement.
