MEMO
To: All Employees
From: Veronica Jackman, Executive Manager
Date: October 10
Subject: Staffing
-[1]- Sheila Roberts, our marketing director will be away on a business trip to Singapore from October 21 to November 5. In her absence, Michael Lee will temporarily take over some of her responsibilities at Goldman's Department Store. However, for those of you who have projects near completion with Ms. Roberts, we ask that you make final arrangements with her before October 15. -[2]- Some of the urgent projects have already been discussed with Michael. If your project can wait for Sheila's return, we ask that you inform both Sheila and Michael so that other projects can go forward.
-[3]- I realize this may seem like an inconvenience, especially so close to the holiday season, but I have great confidence that Michael will be able to handle the responsibilities in Sheila's absence. Michael has worked closely with Sheila and will deal with the newer projects handed to him. -[4]-
If you have further questions or concerns about this, please contact Sheila before October 20 or me at any time.
