Many people have convinced themselves that writing skills are either beyond them, or unnecessary, in the casual world of the '90s. But the reality is, if you're going to make it in the business world, you have to know how to write well. In fact, few things can hurt a reputation more than a poorly written letter or memo.
Business Writing Skills takes the attitude that writing is easier than most people think, and quickly sets about proving that point. Written in a refreshingly conversational style, this book makes anyone excited about picking up a pen or powering up a word processor to write clear, concise English. Through its dynamic language, numerous examples, and practice exercises, this book takes readers all the way from staring at a blank page to incorporating foreign words into text. They'll also learn about:
** frequently misused words and expressions
** matching the right tone to the situation or person
** the correct writing styles for memos, letters, job descriptions, reports, newsletters, and even e-mail.
