A thesis statement should be included somewhere within the introduction and is:
A broad, formally written statement/Your point of view on a particular topic without the “I” (first person as academic essays are generally written in the third person)
e.g:
I think,organisational structure is an important consideration and must enable the achievement of the mission and strategic objectives by ensuring the organisation has a capacity to communicate effectively both internally and to their external stakeholders..
OR
The larger bed capacity , a desire to provide more responsive health care, combined
with a mission related to the connection of the WMH to its community, through outreach clinics, means that the organisational structure needs to allow more flexibility and
better communication internally and to the community they serve.
A thesis statement could stress a particular fact e.g.: üIt is generally acknowledged/considered/recognised that organisational structure assists the organisation to optimise the quality of care provided. üEffective communication ensures that the needs of the community are met in a timely way. Note: A thesis statement is your personal response to a particular question or a quote. Do not use a direct quote or reference your thesis.
