Just like your report, your review, too, should identify the problem, its causes,
the relative importance of each, and the possible solutions along with your
opinions and recommendations.

Preparing Policy Statements

A policy statement is also a kind of a report. So it should also begin with an
overview of the past achievements, facts, and data.
It should be followed by the need for a new policy. A thorough, well-
documented and research-backed data, supported by needs analysis, should
supplement and strengthen your statement.
Mention the policy change and its aim succinctly. Discuss its advantages
and indicate possible difficulties and ways to overcome them.

Agendas for Staff Meeting

An agenda is essentially an official list of activities to be looked at, discussed,
and dealt with in a particular meeting.
Hence it should indicate the importance, the urgency, and hence the
ordering of items. It should be time sensitive.
