                               To answer these questions, we have designed an approach for developing
                               a plan that, after implementation, will enable the community retail bank
                               consortium to achieve the benefits of increased competitiveness in the dereg-
                               ulated market.



                               Putting It All Together: Composing the “Background”
                                         Section from Your Logics Worksheet

                          If you’ve done all the work in Parts 1 and 2, your proposal or presentation is
                          almost ready to write itself slot by slot. First, I’ll show you and explain the “map”
                          (Figure 9.3) for writing your background section. Then, I will follow that map,
                          constructing the first draft of a background section.

                          For the Story Component
                          ◉  Create the history of the problem from the content of Cell 1.
                          ◉  Follow with the triggering event, the problem, and its effects from Cell 2.
