The first thing I took to heart was maintaining organized and professional layout in this report. Not only did I write the report in an organized and professional manner, but that was also one of the recommendations for improving the communication with the “company” that I worked for. Secondly, I considered the importance of language. It is important to use appropriate language for the subject that you are writing about, and so that the intended audience will understand this. Lastly, I focused on the importance of audience. When writing for a new boss, it’s important to impress them: to be concise and solve the problem they addressed. Some of the communication problems that my company faced involved miscommunications with the outside world: a lot of times engineers have trouble communicating with people from other backgrounds. Just this weekend my mom called me crazy when I told her I love doing math problems! So, in an engineering corporation it is important to consider that the people who receive the “goods” from your company might not particularly care how technical they are. It is important to cater to their needs. By focusing on these elements in my report to my new “boss” I was able to develop a technical document that met the needs required.
