Writing Reports and Proposals

A formal report is usually written to someone in another company or organization. Occasionally it is written for a senior manager in the same company, or for someone with whom the writer has little regular contact. Usually it is longer than an informal report and requires more extensive research.

Good reports and proposals succeed by enabling decision makers to make the best decisions. This course provides strategies and techniques to ensure your reports, feasibility studies, proposals and business plans are clear, concise, and persuasive.

Reports are written to lead to action, to make things happen, or play a part in so doing. It is usually a tool to create an image of the writer/organization in the mind of the reader. Communication influences people, and hence, the intention is clear; a report usually has a case to present, one that will act so as to play a part in the thinking that follows. Preparation is the foundation upon which report writing is based. The ultimate measure of a good report is whether it achieves the required outcome. Research prior to writing is necessary as more time spent on research and preparation means less on writing because the writing flows more smoothly. Consult people and books in researching.
