Notes
This team puts its conclusions at the end and did
not use informative headings on its process flow
diagrams. The headings do not outline the
argument.
A pitch that presented the recommendation first
and gave evidence of calculations to support
claims would have been more persuasive.
The PPT cant reinforce the oral message or
persuade readers on its own.
