Before you begin writing your memo, write out a PAIBOC analysis of the communication situation. What is the purpose of your message? Who is your audience and what do you know about the audience? What information must your message include? And so forth. When your assignment is complete, you should have three things on your Word document: • A list of the pros and cons of working from home – all gathered from your reading. • A PAIBOC analysis of the communication situation Delores Webber faces as she plans to write to her Yippee! employees. • An internal memo written by Delores Webber to her employees telling them of her decision to end the company’s work-from-home policy.
