How to write a report that is expected professionally?

-

A report writing is a boring work if you don't know the details for the same. 

A project manager takes less than a day to write a long report because they know each details of the project. And know from where to and to where the information need to be extracted. 

Experience do play an important role but anybody can do this any time, as experience enhance the work you do. 

A Report is a presentation of detailed understanding and expression of all the goods and bad of the project. 

  • Report need to be clean and in a single format, which make it consistent and more feel like that the work is done sensibly.
  • The report content should be well defined by footer and header should display the identity of either the report making organisation or the reported project organisation.

A report is actually a definition in itself that it is a well defined document related to a project.

Now how you can you can make a one like a professional-

  • The very first page should be crisp introduction of the project, the parties involved and timelines also.
  • The second page usually is a disclaimer as human are prone to mistakes and limited capacity to do things a disclaimer provides that the report is made based on few documents provided by the parties involved.
  • Then the next few pages should summarise the report and should for making it a beautiful piece of work do link every head with the index and summary.
  • Every head should be sequential there cannot be two a pointers in a documents there should be a distinction even though they are there. 
  • If any of your details in the report require more details a annexure should be attached at the end of the report with proper linking and reference.
  • Referencing and description of various items make it informative document and if the same is not there it a just a work done by someone who will be criticised and not allowed to make the same thing again.
So these are the points you should keep in your mind while making a report.
