GBP Title Page & Summary
Team Challenge
What is the first impression a reader will get about your idea? If you only have 3 minutes to tell the complete story with convincing impact what would you say? What is the reader about to read?
The "Title Page" and "Executive Summary" is all that some people will read about your plan. Then they decide if they want to read more. So you want to "hook" people in, tell them why your idea is important and needed, and summarize the big picture for them. That is why it is written last.
