Writing Advantage®
Teaches quality writing standards that help your employees increase productivity, resolve issues, avoid errors, and heighten credibility
Challenge
Does your organization produce written communication that conveys your intended message with professional quality, clarity, and accuracy?
Many professionals spend up to three hours each day attempting to express themselves in writing. Unfortunately, this time is wasted when the information they deliver is misinterpreted or even ignored. With poor structure and muddy language, most written communication gets lost in today’s information clutter. Consider the effect of an unclear press release or unorganized marketing plan. Poorly-crafted documents can cause misunderstanding, hamper collaboration, create errors, and threaten your professional credibility—and your business results.
