Lesikar's Business Communication: Connecting in a Digital World 13th Edition by Kathryn Rentz,Paula Lentz

تمرين 43

As director of corporate communications at the headquarters of a large consumer-goods manufacturer, you've just received an email from Jan Tofar-one of the company's newest, youngest hires-proposing that you discuss "mindfulness" in one of your weekly feature articles for the company intranet. Jan has been reading research and Web posts about the negative effects of multitasking and the benefits of a focused approach to one's work. She believes that the employees should be educated on this topic and taught how to minimize distractions that create stress and hamper productivity. Specifically, you will use her ideas and some research of your own to write a feature article about the benefits of reducing multitasking and increasing mindfulness at work. Before coming to this decision, you made sure to get the approval of Human Resources, since employee productivity and welfare is their area of expertise and authority. In your favorable response to Jan, be sure you show that you appreciate her idea, that you will do a good job on the article, and that she'll get credit for her suggestion.
