   A Business report has a definite structure. It is arranged in a way that the reader can easily find the information he or she requires. A structure also makes it easier for the writer, to arrange our thoughts in a logical flow and to write a readable report.
   In its simplest form, a report will consist of a beginning, a middle and an end.
   The beginning, the Introduction, sets the scene by informing the reader what the report is all about and what it intends to achieve.
   The middle section, the Findings, is the most important part of the document where the details of the findings are delivered, and the arguments developed. The findings section has a logical structure, is written in clear language, and is organized into appropriate headings and sub-headings. This clarifies the report’s aim and ensures the reader’s interest is maintained.
   The end must follow on naturally from the main body of the report. We arrive at a conclusion, and we guide the reader to a series of recommendations.
   A good report is like a well told joke, it funnels the reader down to the punch line:
   - Introduction - Sets the scene
   - Findings - Gives the detail
   - Conclusions - Lands the punch line
   We draw the reader down the narrowing funnel to our logical conclusions. The headings we use should demonstrate this clear, logical structure.
   Concentrating on your Plan and your Structure should help ensure you write a highly effective report.
