    👩🏼‍💻 5 STEPS:
    1. Put bottom line up front. Recap entire memo in Summary section at top.
    2. Give relevant, concise background. Make the issue significant.
    3. Provide convincing evidence to support recommendations.
    4. Offer a blueprint for implementation.
    5. Solicit feedback from colleagues before submitting. Policy doesn’t occur
    in a vacuum.

    How do I find topics to write about for the policy memo?

    • @peakdavid
      @peakdavid  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If your course instructor doesn't provide policies, then any one should do. Google "possible topic for a policy memo."
