2.4. Review of Documents:
I will interview the employees in groups by department. I plan to explain to them the problems that have been brought to our attention and ask for their input into what they feel the problems are and how they would solve them. I will have them complete the surveys followed by a question and answer session. I will observe the individual departments in their work settings to see how they interact with each other and their clients. I hope to see where any and all breakdowns in communication and work procedure are occurring. I hope to have more understanding of how each department works together after these meetings and observations.

I believe much of this is due in recent months because of the loss of two key managers, an Art Director and an Account Manager. These positions have not been filled, but the CEO is interviewing and hopes to either promote from within or hire new managers within the next two weeks.
