SUMMARY:Better Business Writing
DESCRIPTION:Most people\, even if they are not involved in business\, have probably written some form of business communication at one time. This may have been a letter of complaint to a company\, or a letter to the bank manager asking for an overdraft. Whatever the reason\, or type of communication\, business writing is something that we are all involved in at some point in our lives. It is therefore important that we know what it is\, how to do it and how to do it well. \nFor some people\, it is a vital skill; according to a survey of employer’s world-wide\, writing correctly and persuasively comes top of the list of skills needed for professional success. \nAlthough business writing can seem a little overwhelming to begin with\, it can be relatively easy to learn – once you understand the basics of what is required. \nThere are several benefits to learning how to write good business documents: \n\nYou can make a good impression on others if your writing is well prepared and produced.\nYou will save time when writing documents\, if you know how to plan and prepare them.\nYou will save other people time if your documents are clearly written and easy to read.\nYou will create a good impression of yourself to those around you.\nYou will create a good impression of your organisation.\nDuration: 1 Day \nWe now deliver this workshop in shorter sessions over a virtual classroom – delivered live from our tutor in 2 half day sessions. \n\n\n\n\n\n
