About This Course
The trick to communicating effectively is to write simply and concisely. Yet this is easier said than done because of the perception that messaging requires an oh-so-formal approach replete with polysyllabic jargon. That is so wrong. What’s worse is when the message is clouded by platitudes and self-glorification that you see so often in press statements.
This 1.5 days workshop is designed to help participants learn the key principles of good writing and how to get your tone right.
