10. All staff email – approximately one page
(150–200 words)
11. Letter – approximately one page (200–250
words)
Write an email to all Charr’d staff (copy in the
CEO separately), reminding them about how to
manage workplace safety risks and hazards. You
can find information about workplace safety risks
and hazards in the food retail industry in this
report: Managing Health and Safety in Food
Retail.
On behalf of your CEO, write a formal complaint
letter to the CEO of one of your supplier
companies, “Letus.”
Because this email is going to everyone in the
company (CEO, middle managers, and frontline
workers), you should provide enough detail to
help staff who are working in a variety of
situations (e.g., offices and restaurants).
Letus supplies fresh leafy green vegetables (e.g.,
lettuce, spinach) to Charr’d, which are used on a
wide range of burgers. However, the quality of
their products has declined in recent months while
costs have gone up. You can find information
about managing relationships with suppliers here.

12. Media release – approximately one page
(300–350 words)
13. Critical Reflection – approximately one
page for each reflection (300–350 words)
Charr’d is collaborating with 2023 Australian of the
Year, Taryn Brumfitt, to release a new line of
healthy “Brumfitt Burgers.”
To become an effective communicator, you need
to think critically about your own writing and
understand how your audience is likely to react to
it. Small details – such as the order in which you
present information and which verbs you choose –
can make a lot of difference.
You need to prepare a “new product” media
release that could be published (without
alteration) on both the Charr’d website and by a
lifestyle magazine.
NOTES:
•
Follow the Media Release format taught in
Week 4.
•
Your media release should NOT sound like
an advertisement.
•
Include at least one quotation from the
Charr’d CEO, expressing excitement about
the partnership with Ms Brumfitt AND/OR
describing the new product line.
•
Include at least one quotation from Ms
Brumfitt, explaining why she is happy to be
part of this collaboration.
•
You may invent any other necessary
information.
•
Do NOT copy wording directly from the
Assignment Instructions or any other
source. Acknowledge ALL of your information
sources in a single “Reference List” at the end
of your submission.
This part of the assessment task asks you to think
critically about the letter, email and media release
you have written and to explain the writing choices
you made when preparing them.
NOTES:
•
Name and briefly describe the genre you are
explaining, including its basic structure and
characteristic linguistic features.
•
Refer to specific words, phrases and
sentences within your own documents, to
illustrate where/how your work follows the
expected structure and uses the expected
linguistic features of this genre.
•
Do NOT focus on the subject matter of your
letter, email or media release. Instead, focus
on how you structured these documents and
your writing techniques / decisions.
•
Do NOT use bullet points. Use what you
have learned about sentence structure and
clear writing (Week 3) to write in complete
sentences and paragraphs.
•
Use the first-person pronoun (“I”) with active
verbs, e.g.,
— I began my email with … because…
— I wanted my audience to … So, I
chose the words ….
— I used the online Merriam-Webster
dictionary to check the spelling of …
The advantages of this tool are…
The disadvantages are …
— I altered the media release generated
by ChatGPT by … because …
OPTIONAL:
•
You may use some of the following reflection
questions to help formulate your explanation.
MGTS7610 Business Writing Portfolio Assignment Guide

— What “moves” are made in this
document? In which order? Why?
— How did I want my audience to
respond to this document? Which
elements of my writing are designed
prompt that response? How effective
do I think this document would be if it
were used in “real life”? Why?
— What kind of tone does this document
have? Which specific words / phrases
did I use to achieve that tone? Why?
— What kind of persuasive language did
I use in this document? Where? Why
did I choose those specific words /
phrases?
— What clear writing strategies did I use
in this paper? How effective are they?
How might I improve the clarity of my
writing?
•
Decide on the most appropriate order for
presenting the information in your Critical
Reflection.
•
Do NOT copy wording directly from the
Assignment Instructions or any other
source. Acknowledge ALL of your
information sources in a single “Reference
List” at the end of your submission.
