Content of new email policy for
FedGen Employees
Imagine you are VP Employee
Communications at a large service firm, such as a bank, advertising or
consulting firm. Create an email to all your employees to announce an email
policy you have just created. You are not persuading: you are announcing. However,
you must be tactful and professional. Remember: some of those folks have been
around along time and some are beginning their very first jobs.
Then write a brief summary
explaining why you chose to emphasize these principles and why you wrote your
message as you did. What were your objectives? How did you use the background
reading?
Be careful: remember that emails
can be leaked! If your email appeared on Page 1 of the Wall Street Journal,
would you be proud or embarrassed?
The assignment should include
references, properly cited.
