Very Very Important- This is a leadership class. When you construct an assignment you have to
relate it to an issues of leadership. The more you can talk technical the more impressive you will be.
And impressive is what you want to be. If you don’t want to be impressive why do the work at all?
VERY IMPORTANT: All work should/must/needs to be submitted by email as an attachment to
xdj1@purdue.edu with the correct subject line ( unless specified differently). When you submit by
email you must put the proper subject heading. You also must include your name(s) on actual
paper (not just in body of email message) to insure credit. Make certain you save and backup all
your work. If you have to show me you send your work how can you do that? Since this is all done
via email or special web site there is a record of submission. You cannot claim that I lost it. If you
use the wrong subject heading and I mean even a letter wrong the submission will probably not
be seen by me because it does not go the right place.
All memos are to address specific issues of leadership. This is to be an analysis, not more
description. After reading your work ask yourself the following question: Would this impress a
stranger? Would this work make a stranger stand up and say…WOW I have got to know this person.
WOW I have got to hire this person?
