Communication in Organizations

Brick Kin:

Make it one page and half, also go to A+ work.

Begin working on this assignment in Module 1. You will need to submit your results toward the end of the quarter.

The purpose of this assignment is for you to interact with someone in an organization or industry that you might like to work in someday. 

You should make a professional contact with that individual; ask them if they would be willing to spend about 20 to 30 minutes with you.  Tell them the purpose is to find out more about their career or organization or industry.

After they agree and you schedule the interview you should do some background research about the company and the industry.

You should develop a short (5 to 10 questions) interview. 

After you interview them, you will write up your results and post them to Canvas.  Include your interview questions in the write up of results.

You should also send them a thank you note or email.

NOTE:  Students often wonder if the person from this organization can or should be from the same organization as is used in other assignments.  It is YOUR CHOICE.  It can be the same, but it does not have to be.

Any questions???  Just ask.
