· Please don't exceed 7 pages of content. Succinct writing is generally preferred in business.
· Follow formal APA format. Include Cover and citations, just ignore them for the page count.
· Use good business style. Be succinct, direct, and understandable.
· Remember that your audience (the board of directors) is NOT technically savvy.
