TO: All Staffs
FROM: Manager, Marlin Travel
DATE: November 1, 2018
SUBJECT: End of the Year Party
Following the decision made by the management committee regarding our annual party, I wish
to bring to your attention that it will be held on December 17, 2018, at 6:00 pm at St. Catherine’s
hall. The main purpose of the party is to have an opportunity where members of the staff can
interact, share experiences as well as create strong bonds between themselves. As a company, we
shall also have an opportunity to reflect on our performance and think through how we can
improve it going forward. The new members will have an opportunity to interact with the others
something which is not possible during working days due to their tight schedules.
The dinner will be served at 6:30 pm by Jane’s catering followed by brief presentations by the
various departments of our company starting at 8:00 pm. Each department will have half an hour
to present their work plans for the coming year as well as share their achievements for the year
ending. On this light, each head of the department is expected to convene a meeting as soon as
possible to discuss among other things:
 Work plans for the coming year
 Achievements for the year ending
 Staff appraisals and recommendations for promotions
 Proposals on how to better service delivery at Marlin travel
