Some of my graduate business school students have been overlooking (or neglecting to remember) that a business brief is a short, to-the-point summary with details and problem-solving solutions that reflect the subject matter at hand. Sometimes, it's about a plan of action, or other times, a social dispute between two colleagues. Nevertheless, I have specified what my director wants: two full pages, single-spaced.
With that in mind, the flurry of submissions I reviewed this morning, due yesterday, inspired this from me to the general population in both classes:
A business brief
Avoiding grief
Full pages numbered two
Would you please
See to these
And render just a few?
I wouldn’t mind
It’s really kind
A syllabus fulfilled
Would make me smile
For all the while
Instead of gradebooks drilled.
