Dear Advisory Board :
My general area of interest for this project will be communication and the effect it has on people when seeking a relationship . I know that having substantial communication is vital when searching for a potential companion. I chose this topic because I have always had an interest what makes communication important. This topic is important to me because I may one day be able to save a relationship from failing.
I plan to discuss how communication plays a significant role in relationships along with steps that correspond to having a prosperous relationship. I will ask questions such as; what makes communicating so important in a relationship, why do relationships fail and what makes a relationship successful.
To follow through with my project my product plan is to create a brochure of questions that couples should know the answer to about their partner . This will be a challenge for me because I have no experience in putting together questions that couples should know the answer too, along with creating a key that explains how well each partner knows the other.When seeking a mentor I searched for someone who has knowledge on the topic of relationships. My mentor will be Mrs. Suzanne Russell because she has endured many relationships and will provide insightful information on her experiences.
I understand that plagiarism is illegal and that I would be taking credit for someone else’s work. Plagiarism will get me nowhere, I must do my own work in order to learn from this project. It is important to be an ethical person to avoid facing serious consequences.
Sincerely,
Mya Neal
