Writing Business Reports

Daisy Said:

what strategies are used to communicate the use of data effectively in written business reports?

We Answered:

The sophisticated reader would appreciate a summary of data: mean, median, mode, standard deviation and interquartile range. These tell the reader how widely or narrowly the data is spread.Charts, graphs, pictograms, histograms and ogives provide visualisations of data. You could also use tables to summarise data but I suggest you make visuai representations of tables to complete the picture.

What strategies might you use to communicate the use of data effectively in written a business reports?

We Answered:

Use charts and explain the charts - keep it simple. Don't assume people know what they're looking at. If you have a graph of data, use an arrow to point in the good direction as well as the bad direction. Summarize data, but keep a reference page of the detailed data for the anal types.
