As leaders of their organizations, it is essential for HR professionals to be effective communicators. Today, a majority of business communication takes place in a written format. During this workshop, we will cover five writing techniques that HR professionals can use to draft powerful e-mails and documents. HR professionals who apply these techniques will be able to avoid misunderstandings and gain their readers' approval.
At the end of the session, we will conduct an exercise to show how easy it is to incorporate the five techniques into your everyday writing. Participants will be encouraged to join the discussion and share their opinions with the group.
