Submit a Word report that presents your materials as a modified formal report. The completed report will be 8-9 pages long and must include the following specific elements. Each of these elements, with the exception of the introduction, body, and conclusion, will appear on separate pages.
Format
The document should use the following format:
· Single space
· Headings should be bolded, and you may use 14 point font
· For the body of the report, you should use a 12 point font
· The report pages should be numbered
· The figures, images or tables should be numbered and referred to in the body of the report.
· You should use Control Enter to force a new page when needed
· Canvas Unicheck match should be less than 10% excluding headings and references.
The report should include the following, in order:
Page 1 Title page
Page 2 Transmittal letter* (Written to the CEO, CFO or some other member of the corporation) 1 Page
Page 3 Table of contents
Page 4 List of tables, figures and/or illustrations (3 visuals required; others as needed but no extra points for having more than 3)
Page 5 Executive Summary
Pgs. 6-9 Introduction, body, conclusion (minimum of 2-3 pages) * DO NOT USE THESE HEADINGS
References list in APA format. Minimum of 5; at least one from an academic source and one news article.
Page 10 Appendices (if applicable)
As with any business report, you should not write in first person. This is not about what you think but about what others have said. The body of the report should be heavily formatted with headings and subheadings, white space, lists, and charts as needed. Make sure to number and label every chart or image, and then use those numbers when referring to the visuals in your report. Cartoons and generic images should be avoided, unless they have a direct bearing on company or issue. Use deductive organization overall and on the section and paragraph level so that reader can glance over it rather than reading it carefully—and still grasp the message and its main points.

Management Briefing Intro
For this assignment, I selected Apple as my “Fortune 500” company. My task is to discuss the organization's corporate reputation. The company I chose is facing a communications challenge. As a representative of the company or a communication consultant, I have been asked to present (with PowerPoint) to the company's senior management team about the company's reputation or the perception of an issue facing the business. I should provide recommendations on how to address this issue.
My powerpoint explains everything the paper needs to say. My references were not AP7 format and needs to be corrected to reflect AP7... Feel free to add more recent references also. You may need to look up the ones I found to match the pictures in my powerpoint.
