Business
Writing Skills
One Day
To be successful at any level in business
it is necessary to write well. People need to be able
to inform and persuade others; to relay information
about their products, solutions, views and recommendations.
On paper and on screen the skills of clear, relevant
and punchy expression are essential to your company
image.
Every letter, every e-mail and every
report should be efficient and instantly understood.
However, without the right training many people are
unsure of themselves when they sit down to write.
Writers must be able to get their message across clearly,
without misunderstanding or confusion. Those who write
well have learned that there are distinct steps in the
process of moving from the blank page to the finished
document.
This high impact, practical course takes your people
through those same steps. Participants learn how to
organise their thinking, marshall their ideas and structure
their work. They discover new ways to write with conviction
and impact. They improve their ability to hold the reader’s
attention. They learn to persuade and to motivate. And
above all they learn to save time.
The programme highlights the new reader-centred reality
of business correspondence and is suitable for all who
are required to communicate with the written word.
