Question

1. As an Organizational Psychologist, you have thought of arranging a picnic in two weeks' time for your employees from all departments and their families to unwind their work stress and give them a healthy mental break. There are many fun activities that you have planned. For the children, there will be games like three-legged races and kite-flying. For the adults, besides the baseball game in the afternoon, there will also be sack race and horseshoes. There will be prizes for the winners of all the events. Lunch should be around noon, and you are generously providing all the food and drinks, so let your employees know that they do not need to bring anything.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

As an Organizational Psychologist, you have thought of arranging a picnic in two weeks' time for your employees from all departments and their families to unwind their work stress and give them a healthy mental break. There are many fun activities that you have planned. For the children, there will be games like three-legged races and kite-flying. For the adults, besides the baseball game in the afternoon, there will also be sack race and horseshoes. There will be prizes for the winners of all the events. Lunch should be around noon, and you are generously providing all the food and drinks, so let your employees know that they do not need to bring anything.

Your Task: Write a memo requesting, but not demanding, that employees attend the picnic. Also ask your employees to confirm at least one week in advance whether they are coming or not, and also how many guests they are bringing. Also, make sure employees know when and how to respond to you. Be sure to list the activities for that day as well.
