Executive summary is a term used in business for a short document that summarizes a longer report,
proposal or group of related reports in such a way that readers can rapidly become acquainted with a
large body of material without having to read it all. It will usually contain a brief statement of the problem
or proposal covered in the major document(s), background information, concise analysis and main
conclusions. It is intended as an aid to decision making by business managers.

An executive summary differs from an abstract in that an abstract will usually be shorter and is intended
to provide a neutral overview or orientation rather than being a condensed version of the full document.
Abstracts are extensively used in academic research where the concept of the executive summary would
be meaningless.
[edit]Details

Other characteristics of the executive summary are difficult to pin down as different businesses publish
definitions to suit their own purposes. An executive summary will usually

 be written in non-technical language

 have a conclusion
 make a recommendation
 summarize more than one document

 Plan to create a summary each time you write a business report exceeding four pages. Write the summary after
you write the main report, and make sure it is no more than 1/10 the length of the main report.
 2
List the main points the summary will cover in the same order they appear in the main report
 3
Write a simple declarative sentence for each of the main points.
 4
Add supporting or explanatory sentences as needed, avoiding unnecessary technical material and jargon.
 5
Read the summary slowly and critically, making sure it conveys your purpose, message and key recommendations.
You want readers to be able to skim the summary without missing the point of the main report.
 6
Check for errors of style, spelling, grammar and punctuation. Ask a fellow writer to proofread and edit the
document.
 7
Ask a nontechnical person - for example, your parents or your spouse - to read the document. If it confuses or bores
them, the summary probably will have the same effect on other nontechnical readers.
