Re: Formal Report Authorization
Over the last twenty-years, Dunder Mifflin has seen significant growth and success. We have become the biggest paper supplier in the Eastern region of the United States, and we have expanded our reach into the tablet market. We could not have gotten to this place without the hard work and dedication from our employees. So Dunder Mifflin’s next big challenge is not in the marketplace; it is in the workplace. We want to make Dunder Mifflin a better company to work for because we believe that happy employees make happy customers.
So that is where you come in. We are asking you to author a report that proposes one bold, achievable effort the company can make to improve itself. This proposal should objectively improve the workplace without sacrificing overall productivity or company resources.
We request that you restrict your proposal to one of the following ideas:
· Providing a workplace daycare
· Establishing an employee recognition program
· Going green
· Changing the traditional 40 hour work week
· Implementing a diversity program
· Increasing the ability for staff to work remotely
Should we select your proposal, we would like to implement by the beginning of next year, so you we need your final report by December 8th.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
David Wallace
