  • Title: Executive Summary for [Company Name] Business Plan

    Week 5 – Executive Summary
    Assignment Point Value: 40 pts
    “An executive summary is a component of a business document (for example, business plans and project proposals) or research documents used in academia, government, and the healthcare industry. The goal is to summarize the important information found in the rest of the document and is often listed in the table of contents as a separate section. When not listed as a formal section, it is the reader’s first introduction to the purpose of a plan, report, or proposal. An executive summary might be a paragraph, a summary memo, or occasionally the first page. When it is written well, it tells a story quickly and efficiently with a clear purpose.” (https://www.smartsheet.com)
    “A well planned, well written executive summary accounts for the user’s time and by doing so, serves as a valuable tool. Decision-makers don’t have the time to read everything, and the average time an online user spends actually reading content is already at a premium. If you’re creating business plans, project proposals, product launch presentations, or making a sales pitch, the executive summary is an opportunity to convey the most important aspects of your content to the reader.
    Even if it is the only thing your target audience reads, a well written executive summary creates value if the reader takes action without having to read the rest of your content word for word. If there is a business case for your document, a strong argument to make, or a story to tell, do it in the executive summary first.” (https://www.smartsheet.com)
    Directions for Compiling an Executive Summary
    Background
    Even though the executive summary is the second item in the business plan and the first item to be presented, you should write it after the other sections are finished so that you can give an accurate description. This is your chance to give an overview of your business plan and highlight the key points of your company’s future success.
    Technical directions
    Please follow these instructions exactly and respond to the suggested description of this template found in your text, pages 221-222.

  • “Examining Motivation and Success in Higher Education through the Perspectives of Ehrenreich, Staples, and Rose”

    Complete the reading assignment: Ehrenreich, Staples, & Rose
    Step 2-Annotate the reading by Talking to the Text
    Step 3-Please compose two paragraphs identifying Ehrenreich’s, Staples’s, and Rose’s main points in the first paragraph. The first sentence should address a common theme. The next six sentences should introduce each reading selection with its main points and titles. Finally, you will need to provide a sentence with a direct quotation, commentary, and parenthetical citation that validates the main point.
    In the second paragraph, you have the option to only address one reading selection as it relates to you. However, you may choose to address how you made connections to all. Each paragraph should have at least one direct or indirect quotation from the reading to support your claims. Please use MLA format. In addition, the required length of each paragraph must be at least 8 sentences long. Example: Paragraph 1- example
    Many people have a desire to graduate college one day; however, without the proper motivation, this desire is simply a dream. Johnathan Williams argues that people need to physically write their educational goals on paper and post them, so they can visually be reminded of their commitment to success, in his article, “I Need a Degree.” Williams pushes many of his friends to succeed in small goals because “small successes lead to greater self-esteem and more motivation” (32). Next, Rebecca Cox strongly believes that many irrational fears can adversely affect first-year college students’ success in college unless they have a fear-management strategy, in her article, “The Student Fear Factor.” According to Cox, many English students are simply overwhelmed by the volume of expectations and assignments and will say, “I’m not going to be able to make it”, when all they need to do is find a support network for the courses they have (20). Lastly, Carol Dweck argues that the definition that students use for intelligence greatly affects motivation and learning in her article, “Brainology.” According to Dweck, the definitions lead to the development of mindsets that “have profound implications on motivation and learning” in any learning environment (1). As a result of success building strategies, many people have graduated from college, started businesses, and accomplished their goals.
    Paragraph 2- example
    The portion of William’s article where he described how he helped his best friend was compelling to me because it reminded me of the time when my God -Father helped me to overcome my fear of writing. In this portion of the article, Williams told his friend that not helping his best friend in life would be an eternal stain on his permanent record in Heaven (33). My God-father told me that I had to succeed because I represented him. He could write well, and he was determined to teach me the tenets of writing. I wanted to write well. I listened to everything my God-father shared with me, just like Williams’s best friend listened to him. I practiced day and night using the skills my mentor gave me. I am sure the best friend followed instructions too. In the end, I accomplished my goal of becoming a better writing much in the same measure of success as the best friend who graduated from college in the article.

  • Primary Source Response: Jefferson and Washington’s Views on Race and Government

    Questions
    1. What is Jefferson’s views towards Africans? How could Jefferson reconcile these statements in this document, his ownership of slaves, and his writing in the Declaration of Independence that, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.”
    2. What is George Washington’s feelings about the events in Massachusetts? Consider the debates during the period of proper forms of government and assess where Washington fits within those debates? How would Washington compare to someone like Jefferson on the issues?
    Additional Notes
    Responses should be 1-2 pages, double spaced in 12 point Times New Roman font with one-inch margins on all sides. Including the questions or a header is not required, but if they are included they do not count towards the minimum page limit.

    You need to show us you have not only read, but understand, the document you are responding to. Large blocks of quoted text and minimal analysis on your paper is not a sufficient response
    Students need to cite relevant page numbers from the textbook as necessary (e.g. when using quotes or citing non-common knowledge). Utilize footnotes for each citation. Consult the “Creating Footnotes” video for further information on creating footnotes.

    Relative change:
    Subtract the two populations.
    Divide the result by the old population (from the 2000 table).
    Convert the result to percent form.
    Round to a whole percentage or tenth of a percent (your choice, as long as the result has at least two nonzero digits).
    Put each result and city name into a sentence of the general form ″˂City˃′s population ˂increased/decreased˃ by ˂number˃ ˂people/%˃ from 2000 to 2023.″
