Don’t Let Writing
Be Your Weakest Link
with Shirley Taylor
Do you realise that what you write and how you write gives an impression of you? Very often it's the first impression people receive. What sort of impression does your writing give?
The typical executive today spends approximately 20-25 per cent of their time writing. Yet writing is a skill that few people seek to improve. With so many emails, letters and other documents to write, and time being an issue, writing effectively can be very demanding. However, the truth is that your writing skills can make a big difference to your efficiency, productivity and success.
Remember, we now communicate with people from all over the world, and much of the time the only way those people can form an opinion of us is by looking at the way we write. Shirley will show you the importance of learning to write well.
