Research additional articles and information about the Chilean mine collapse.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper using this and other articles as a resource. Because communications must be
designed with the audience in mind, answer the following questions:
• What are some considerations to remember given the different roles and people in the audience?
o What would be the potential needs of the families of the miners in receiving a message about this incident?
o What would be the potential needs of the company’s employees when receiving a message about this incident?
• What actions must you take before and after the message is delivered to ensure that it was received as
intended?
Format the paper consistent with APA guidelines.
Draft two communications from the mining company announcing the accident, using what you have learned about the
audience and effective messages. One communication should be directed to the families of the trapped miners and
the other as an internal news release to employees in the company. For both, identify the most appropriate
channel—face-to-face, e-mail, video, memo, and so on.
