Prepare an original business report examining this key trend’s short- and long-term impact on the North American transportation industry. You may also include some supportive discussion highlighting a particular logistics provider, industry or product type to support findings. However, your report should not be written entirely about one company. Your report should address the critical areas of service changes, new market opportunities, rates/competitiveness, and security implications. Your report must be prepared as a professional business slide presentation. The presentation must include highlights of the Executive Summary, Body (supportive information/data), briefConclusion and Reference List. Some basic guidelines are provided below. Strategies, Slide presentation format Short, concise sentences captured in max. 4 bullet points per slide Focus on the present (not past) and future initiatives Great executive summary with highlights in bullet point format. Carefully constructed detailed body (see below) and a brief summary of the conclusion. Limited repetition with information that flows between sections seamlessly.
Extensive use of graphs, tables, flowcharts and diagrams to capture key information Short preview or overview statements Shorter than “traditional essay paragraphs” that “get right to the point” Headings to draw attention to major points or new sections Selective underlining or highlighting for emphasis Expression and justification of point of view based upon supportive research Strong but condensed conclusion.
