Writing Clinic
Writing Coach launches, “Writing Clinic”; a new service to help you get important documents right and learn from the process.
No time to take part in a Writing Coach program? Aware that your critical document or email could be more effective? We designed our new service, “Writing Clinic”, just for you.
The objective is to help you polish a critical workplace document, presentation or email within a few days before you need to use it or send it.
The service is different because it is developmental. This means that rather than just correct your writing, we work with you to develop the skills you need to improve it. If you develop the skills, you will be able to write similar texts more effectively next time.
How does the service work?
After uploading your document, presentation or email to our website, you book a 45-minute session with one of our coaches. During the session, you will receive coaching on how to improve it. We can conduct the session face-to-face at our office in Central or by web-conference.
Which skills will you develop?
You will develop the skills you need to:
- analyze your task to:
- identify a precise purpose
- understand what your reader needs in order to help you achieve your purpose
- organize information accordingly
- design a text to:
- guide your readers
- highlight key points
- write concisely by omitting redundant and clichéd writing
- write clearly by using shorter sentences and simpler grammar structures
- achieve impact through:
- powerful paragraph and sentence structure
- direct yet polite tone
- precise yet familiar vocabulary
- build relationships by managing sensitive messages with transparency, accountability and sincerity.
