After all your planning, research, and processing, you're finally ready to apply your findings. Depending on the writing project, you may be drawing conclusions based on your results, or making recommendations.A conclusion is a logical interpretation of the facts in your report. Reaching good conclusions based on the evidence is one of the hallmarks of innovative business leaders.Whereas a conclusion interprets the facts, a recommendation suggests what to do about the facts. To be credible, recommendations must be practical and based on sound logical analysis. Also, when making a recommendation, be certain you have adequately described the recommended course of action so that readers aren’t left wondering what happens next.
