Sedona And Santa Fe Report Research Paper

Recommending a City for a Business Getaway: When the employees at Strategic Advantage, a
communications firm, exceed their performance goals for the year by a wide margin, they’re invited to
“President’s Club,” which means that they and their families get to go on an all-expenses-paid trip to a
cool U.S. city. As the president’s administrative assistant, you research the places the president has in
mind each year to help him choose the destination.
For this year, the president wants you to research two cities in the Southwest: Sedona and Santa Fe.
Both are popular, highly rated vacation cities, and both are somewhat out of the way; it’s unlikely that
many of the company’s employees have ever been to either. He’s asked you to research and compare
the relative advantages of the two cities. Is there golf? Other recreational opportunities? Shopping?
Great food? Natural beauty? How hard is it to get there? Are interesting side trips possible? And how
much money would we be talking for a nice hotel or resort there? (Forty-plus people will be going.) Is
there sufficient opportunity for socializing? (This is supposed to be a team-building experience, too).
Do sufficient Internet research to answer all of your boss’s likely questions. Then write up your
findings in an attractive document that he can share with the other executives.
