SAMPLE - INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM - AWARD, TEAM ANNOUNCEMENT

SUBJECT:  We're Looking for the Winning [COMPANY NAME]
Team

There are few professions in which competence alone leads to success.  A quarterback needs someone to receive the pass; a director needs an actor to follow his directions.  Life is full of  interdependent relationships in which cooperative efforts achieve the best results.

Teamwork is an overarching goal of [COMPANY NAME].  We believe that collective enthusiasm, motivation, and perseverance are the factors that separate success from failure.  Among our diverse personnel and responsibilities, there are teams that prove and promote this corporate goal.

Soon, you will receive a nomination form for this year's notable team award.  We want to know why your quarterback deserves the Theismann trophy.  How your defensive ends support strategic plays. And what your team has done to win the Super Bowl of [COMPANY NAME] team awards.

Look for this form in your mailbox, and be sure to complete it by the requested date.  As their coach, you will be in line for a commendation too.  A team is only as good as the coach who counsels, educates, and sponsors the players.
