Memorandum Issuing Directives
October 31st, 2010 | Published in Memorandum
A memorandum or letter that aims to issue a directive should be written in a professional, simple, yet courteous manner. The directives contained in the letter/memorandum should be clear and precise. Whether it’s in letter or memorandum format, the correspondence should clearly state the subject matter. Bullets may be used to highlight key points.
A ranking officer issuing the directives need not discuss so many details in the letter. It may be good, though, to clearly indicate any foreseen problem and how it may be solved. A memo or letter issuing directives specifically states how you expect the reader to proceed in order to accomplish certain tasks.
A memorandum or email message may suffice for subordinates coordinating with each other to carry out tasks as part of an activity, or to get updates on routine tasks or assignments.
Here is a memorandum issuing directives, citing specific tasks that need to be undertaken:
