Writing Effectively in Work Training Outline
Discussion of Basic English
Many professionals take it for granted that English is their first and most familiar language. There are actually two. You get extra points if you spot both of them. But that doesn't necessarily mean your team has the same abilities. Even more, spelling is only one aspect of English language. This training course will focus on basic grammar rules and sentence structure. Participants will be able to maintain their linguistic muscle and prepare for advanced business writing.
Not impress, but express your thoughts.
The temptation to brag about one's superior vocabulary and write a long paper is a common problem for budding business writers. Bosses and coworkers can't afford to read a 30-page paper about the company's Monday meeting. Although this would be acceptable, it is not appropriate. Written works should be concise . It is important that we help participants understand how to write concisely without being too proud of their craft. Participants may view it as a challenge. "How can I appeal to people with only 300 words?" We show participants.
Use business standards to write
Businesses have business writing just like universities have academic writing. Just as universities write for information, so do businesses. And, just as universities write for the knowledge, businesses write to be efficient and quick-paced. Our goal is to assist professionals in creating professional email, memos, and letters. We also help them to adapt to these formats by providing them with writing exercises and demonstrating proper formatting. There will be plenty of room for scheming: they can create addresses or use any name they like. For maximum laughter, they'll be able to read the letters out loud. Our ultimate goal here is to demonstrate to participants that proper writing can easily be done in groups, and in an interactive way. They will be able beat any APM in writing speed, and still maintain the high quality standards for which companies are known.
Learn the "force" behind your words
Sometimes, some words are more appropriate than others. Sometimes the joys of writing can be made more clear by using powerful words. Words like "glorious," or "luxurious" are words that have been used to send us to other planets. We are not sure how these words were used in relation to space travel. But we are serious. Some words are more effective and appropriate than others. This can vary depending on the context. Business writers who are skilled in the art of writing must be able to recognize when striking words might be appropriate. Word choice is often a key factor in how effective an advertisement will work. Participants will be able to recognize correct and appropriate words by the end of this training session.
Create their own writing styles
Participants must have the ability to create their own writing style in order to become more efficient business writers. If they wish to communicate effectively in the workplace, this means that they will need to have their own "Instinct for Words", signature phrases, sentences, and even scripts. There are endless opportunities for creativity and improvement in our discussions and activities. Participants are guaranteed to leave with a smile and a desire to help others and companies through their amazing use of words.
