Join Business Writing Skills Training and Write clear
Almost all business activities are planned, intentionally, executed and analyzed in written form.
These forms include reports, report summaries, letters, memos and e-mails, and any documents related to business facts. Mutually they are a paper repertoire, recording the proposals, activities and results of numerous business transactions.
4 main types of business writing include:
Description: This writing form provides readers with the information they need to follow the new process at work.
Informational: This type of writing provides readers with reference information and can be used to make decisions in the organization.
Persuasive: Professionals use persuasive writing to attract readers to make specific decisions.
Transactional: Employees use this type of text in daily business communication to share information or get specific responses from colleagues or customers.
Like leadership, most of the people don't have innate writing skills. However, when communicating with others about contracts, recommendations, or other matters involving rock bottom line, having good business writing skills could also be different.
Unfortunately, within the business world, messy emails, incorrectly formatted reports, and rigid, unfriendly content often become the norm.
Writing is a process consisting of several interrelated steps:
Preparation
Research
Organizing
Drafting
Review and Revision
For constructive business writing skills:
Know the audience
Clearly state the purpose
Use concise language
Keeping writing freed from errors
Use active voice
Well organized ideas
State facts rather than opinions
Show confidence
Use simple format
Maintain the ability to adapt to different types of writing
