I understand that you're feeling confused with the instructions for your English assignment. I'll try my best to help you break it down and provide guidance.
First, let's start with the brainstorming part. Based on the information provided, you can brainstorm ideas by considering the following questions:
1. In what way are you uniquely qualified to persuade your supervisor, Liz, to make the recommended changes?
- Mention your years of experience in the company and your familiarity with the office dynamics.
- Highlight any specific skills or knowledge you possess that make you suitable for proposing and implementing changes.
2. How does the uneven productivity impact your office?
- Mention the consequences of the uneven workload distribution, such as some employees being idle while others are overworked.
- Discuss how this impacts the overall efficiency and productivity of the office.
- Consider the negative effects on employee morale and the financial implications for the company.
3. How long has this situation been going on?
- State that this issue has been ongoing for over a month, highlighting the urgency to address it promptly.
4. What are two or three possible solutions that might improve the efficiency of your office?
- Propose solutions like redistributing workloads more evenly, hiring additional support, or implementing a new task management system.
- For each solution, explain what it involves, the amount of work, time, and money required, and how it addresses the problem.
5. Which solution is the best at this time, and why?
- Evaluate the proposed solutions and explain why the recommended solution is the most effective and appropriate for the current situation. Consider factors like cost-effectiveness and the potential impact on employee morale and productivity.
6. How do you convince your supervisor that the change is cost-effective while also persuading your employees it is necessary and beneficial?
- Highlight the long-term benefits of the recommended solution, such as increased efficiency, reduced employee stress, and improved morale.
- Explain how the solution aligns with the company's goals and objectives.
- Provide any relevant facts, figures, or examples that support the cost-effectiveness and benefits of the proposed changes.
Now that you have brainstormed your ideas, you can start organizing them into three paragraphs, as instructed. Begin each paragraph with a clear topic sentence, and make sure that all other sentences in that paragraph support that main idea.
For paragraph 1, focus on defining and analyzing the heart of the problem and its impact on your office and the company. Provide facts, figures, and explanations to clarify the problem for your supervisor. Your goal is to persuade your supervisor that a problem exists.
For paragraph 2, introduce and explain the recommended changes/solutions. Summarize other solutions you considered but discarded and explain why you focused on the specific solution you are proposing. The purpose here is to persuade your supervisor that your choice is the most effective and appropriate.
For paragraph 3, describe the specific benefits that your office, your supervisor, and the company will gain from implementing the recommended solution. Convince your supervisor that this solution will transform the office from inefficient and unmotivated to well-organized and productive.
Remember to use complete sentences, maintain coherence and flow in your writing, and ensure your paragraphs are focused and unified. Keep each paragraph between 8-15 sentences.
Once you have written your three paragraphs based on these guidelines, you can revise your work and correct any errors you find. Make sure to double-space your drafts and ensure your final product is well-polished.
