Writing with Clarity & Concision

Good writing skills are essential for professionals and management executives at any job level.

Whether writing a work proposal, an essay, a brochure, a report, an internal memo, or a letter to a client, customer or government authority, the message must not only be clear, but also concise and persuasive.

Ironically, concise writing requires greater effort (and skill) than lengthy prose.
