Description

Please complete the following:

A persuasive memo that incorporates the persuasive models of Conger, Cialidini and other persuasive communication principles from the background reading.

Please pay particular focus to the principles outlined by Cialdini (n.d.), Conger (1991), and Beason (2001). The Purdue OWL site (2013) and Sant (2012) readings also offer effective strategies to use in your persuasive memos.

You are the Vice President of Operations at a company who is tasked with researching and determining if your company should offer an internship program. Your boss, Daymond John, asks for a memo with your findings and suggestions about implementing an internship program at the company, due first thing Monday morning.

Proponents of the internship program at your company believe the program can be a win-win for the company and the intern. They believe the program can attract a lot of young talent from the region; the company can use the extra help; interns will gain valuable work experience; and the company can save money on manpower, among other reasons.

Opponents at your company believe that finding work for interns to complete, the supervision they require, and the time associated with training them will drain the organization of time that can be better spent somewhere else. There is also no certainty that this program will benefit the intern. Opponents are also concerned with the company violating labor laws that may impact the program, among other concerns.

Write a persuasive memo to Daymond John, your close colleague and direct supervisor. Use the persuasive techniques from the background reading to explain to him the issues and make a suggestion on whether or not the company should pursue an internship program. Use the Internet to further research the topic, and learn what seven requirements help the government determine whether an intern is a paid employee. Use persuasive strategies you have studied to clearly and concisely explain your position on the issue.

MEMO
Companies are torn between introducing an internship program or leaving it. Those
companies that have the program may decide to pay or stick to traditionally unpaid internships.
Despite the fact that the company requires extra resources and time for training, it will drain the
company. There are a lot of advantages related to the program. But the more the resources the
company uses the better the firm it will be.
First, the program will be a win-win for the company and the interns (Penny, 2019). In a
highly competitive industry, there is a need to bring people who see the company from outside.
Therefore, they will be able to bring in fresh perspectives that may be an inspiration to the
company. Truly, many of the graduates are seeking opportunities and are willing to give their
best once they get a chance. It is necessary that the company has the program so that it can be
able to benefit from different inspiration from people who see the firm both from inside and
outside. On the other hand, the graduates will be able to learn in a...
