Business writing is a core skill for HR professionals, since most workplace communication now happens in writing. This 75-minute workshop covers five techniques for drafting clear, persuasive emails and documents that prevent misunderstandings and win readers over.
The topics are clumsy modifiers, ambiguous pronouns, misuse of synonyms, jargon, and the word “and”. Midway, the session looks at the cognitive factors that make business writing effective or ineffective. It ends with an exercise showing how easily the techniques fit into everyday writing, and participants are invited to join the discussion.
Since email became the main way people communicate at work, HR professionals are judged on the quality of their writing. Clear writing creates a positive impression; vague or clumsy prose leaves readers confused.
This session gives HR professionals who send many emails across their organization concrete tips for writing clearly to clients and colleagues.
HR professionals who send a lot of e-mails to other members of their organization.
