Problem
Create a document addressing the case. Choose either a letter, memo, or email and use appropriate formatting. Remember to use business-writing techniques learned in class such as writing clear, concise sentences. Also, avoid many of the jargon and unnecessary words found in many examples of professional writing. Take the time to brainstorm your content and organize your ideas before you write draft; and, before you submit your final document, revise your draft for clarity and coherence and edit for grammar and spelling.
Case:
Because of your outstanding work over the past year, Marlene (your boss) has offered you a position as office manager at the new branch that the company is opening in Miami, Florida. While you are flattered that you have been offered this opportunity, you cannot accept her offer. Write Marilyn a message thanking her for the offer but letting her know you cannot accept. Be sure to keep your reader's needs in mind and add any details you feel she would appreciate knowing.
