Shahana and Tyrah are both interns that I work with within MPM. We are always working as a team and they are my new friends! They are college students that study a different major. Shahana was studying human resources and Tyrah was studying business management and they are both from Brooklyn College. So we talked about SOPs with Tk, Tyrah, and Shahana in the Microsoft team. I have never heard of SOP before and I brought up the question to them: what is an SOP? They answered my question by sharing their documents with me. So an SOP is a procedure specific to your operation. This means SOP is a draft that has all the procedures and details that you need to have. As simple as we have to eat breakfast. Then they will list out the procedures such as buying food the day before, waking up at 6 tomorrow, cooking the egg with a pan, and eventually eating breakfast. So SOP was being created in all of the projects that we are working on. Eventually, we will follow all the procedures or we will make a change. I think SOP is a procedure that all of us should have when we do something, not only a business event. It’s because creating an SOP will give you a guide of what you should do and how you do it.
Here’s the document that Tyrah shared with me with the project for the Women History Month meeting.
