Bad Writing Still Takes Good Money
"Business writing is often characterized by density, circuitousness, voicelessness, overuse of passive voice and non-standard English, punctuation and spelling."
Christine Mowat, "A Conference with Myself on Teaching Writing,"
Teacher as Researcher, Faculty of Education, The University of Calgary.
Poor writing wastes your money in three ways:
-
- It takes time to produce
-
- Your employee is not doing what he or she was hired to do
-
- The message is diluted or even rendered ineffective
