Join Learn It! for another informative course on business communication and email best practices. Attendees will learn how to quickly construct focused, clear and persuasive business communication by bottom lining each message to ensure that messages concise and powerful. The main requirement of effective business writing, especially email, is clarity. Employers want their employees' written communications to be direct, grammatically correct, and easy to read. Careless errors may lead the reader to believe there are also errors in the facts, and the writer loses credibility and trustworthiness.
Attendees can expect to cover:
- Tools to help identify and succinctly state the bottom line of any message
- The ideal structure of e-mail subject lines
- Techniques to develop a message structure that gets to the point and maintains audience interest
Registration is $25 for Chamber members, $35 for prospective members before August 15; $30 and $40 after. A light breakfast will be provided.
