Your examination of the communication surrounding your team members’ feelings about the upcoming meeting has left you concerned. You have resolved to reset the team members’ attitudes so they clearly understand your approach to future communication strategies.
After analyzing the situation, your plan is to briefly introduce items for your team to consider before the meeting via a posted 4–5 minute video. Your goals for this video are to:
Explain three critical communication issues and challenges faced by the team, including communication issues to date.
Describe an action or policy that you will introduce to improve communications and assure people are working with a unified purpose.
Define your expectations, or contract, for ethical discourse in team communications.
Provide a rationale that addresses the importance of the expectations or contract.

Update per comments given. Thank you for your review of factors and their impact on the SFAC. You provide really good overviews of Porter’s Five Forces, but which environmental factor is the focus for the SFAC from PESTLE? For this assignment, you will take one of the outside general environmental factors (one of the PESTEL aspects) and then describe how that aspect affects each of Porter’s Five Forces. For example take “technology” from the PESTEL and describe how technology impacts each of the Five Forces for SFAC. How does Technology affect new entrants for
SFAC, how does technology affect SFAC’s
Buying Power, and so forth.
This course discussed the PEST and PESTLE, tools used for environmental and competition considerations, and how to apply these techniques for an analytical view. Look at the figure above which shows Porter’s five forces of competition. 
In the middle, you notice general environmental key factors. Select one general environmental key factor and in a 1-page summary, discuss how your selection affects each of the five forces, and how your selection also affects (affected) your current or former organization.  Company is SFAC Security Forces Assistance Brigade. The Security Forces Assistance Command (SFAC) is a specialized military unit tasked with training, advising, and assisting foreign security forces to enhance their capabilities and effectiveness. SFAC personnel provide expertise in areas such as tactics, logistics, intelligence, and leadership, working closely with partner nations to build capacity and promote stability.
