When communicating within the context of a meeting, leaders and managers always must be mindful the strengths and drawbacks of meetings. Knowing how to design, develop, and shape your messages is important.

This is a 3 part assignment. Each assignment is a separate paper.

Part 1:
Being able to communicate effectively with employees and other stakeholders is an important skill for a leader or manager. Getting your point across is essential.

Using the Argosy University online library resources, locate and read the following article:
Rodman, L. (2001). You-attitude: A linguistic perspective. Business Communication Quarterly, 64(4), 9–25.

Complete the following:
Use the Internet to locate two passages that are examples of business communication. Analyze and evaluate the passages.
Use the principles discussed in the article You-Attitude: A Linguistic Perspective, to rephrase the passages in a manner that increases communication efficacy.
List the principles you used in each passage and explain how and why they have enhanced communication.

Write a paper and include the selected passages, the rephrased passages, and a double-spaced one-page list of the communication principles used for each passage along with the rationale behind their usage.

Write a 2–3-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Part 2:
Leaders and managers often have to deliver unpleasant or difficult information to other employees or other internal or external stakeholders. How well this news is delivered can affect employee relations as well as public perceptions.

Review the following scenario:
A new company claims it manufactures the best dog food in the market. It employs around 250 people worldwide. After six months in business, one of the company’s brands is found to contain harmful bacteria. Overnight, reports start pouring in from all over the country about pets falling sick, some critically. The company wants to communicate with its stakeholders through a memo before major news channels start to cover the disease.

Assume that you are an assistant to the company’s chairperson. Based on your analysis of the scenario and using the tips you learned in this module, draft two memos for the chairperson. One memo should address the board of directors and the other the company’s employees.
Make assumptions about whether it is the food product that has bacteria or if there is another explanation for the pets’ sickness.

Write a 1–2-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Part 3:
When communicating within the context of a meeting, leaders and managers always must be mindful the strengths and drawbacks of meetings. Knowing how to design, develop, and shape your messages is important.

Review the following scenario:
You have been selected to address the quarterly meeting of your company’s board of directors. You will be delivering negative updates that include low profits, pending lawsuits, and high employee turnover. The members of your board of directors are dispersed across the country.

Based on your analysis of the scenario and the meeting design practices covered in this module, address the following:
• What measures will you take to ensure that you achieve the purpose of the meeting?
• List and briefly explain the rationale for using the practices that you will adopt to ensure that the meeting proceeds smoothly and productively.
