This document provides information about what an abstract is and how it should be structured. An abstract is a summary of a document that appears at the beginning and is typically one paragraph or around 125 words. It introduces the main ideas and content of the document. The abstract should include the purpose, scope, methods, results, recommendations, and conclusions. It is located on its own page directly after the title page with the heading "Abstract" and is not indented. An example abstract is then provided that summarizes the organizational culture at a business institute.
