An Executive Summary is a 1 to 2 page paper that succinctly highlights key points and uses these points to make recommendations to one or more stakeholders. It is usually part of a more detailed report that allows policy makers at all levels to make informed decisions without having to read the entire report.

A good Executive Summary contains a great deal of information in just one or two pages, and is concisely and efficiently written so that the reader feels that he/she has a firm grasp of the key issues after having read the summary. The writer must be convincing and definitive in his/her recommendations.
