The report is informational: Since the report will be read by a wide range of people within the organization, carefully define and explain the importance of intercultural competence. A few sentences with documentation should be sufficient. After this introduction proceed with your recommendations.
The report is analytical: Based upon your research you will recommend in your memo at least two practical actions leading to a more interculturally competent workforce.
