Why bother - in our new digital world?

On-the-fly text messages: “R U going 2 night? :)"–"OMG dude, my boss is giving the most boring zzz presentation."  This is now the primary written communication of an entire generation.


  • Growing legions of smart phone users are adopting the same writing habits in text messaging and e-mails.
  • Newspapers, which have cut back on editors, are filled with jargon and errors— in spelling, grammar, and wrong word usage.
  • User-generated websites, blogs, and other social media reflect the same weak writing skills.


These writers seem to ask: 
Who—in our new digital world— needs business writing skills?

Our answer: 
Everyone who still has to write and communicate for work.

Everyone who must write board reports, annual reports, decision memos, letters, business e-mails, proposals, strategic plans, white papers, reports, speeches, PowerPoint presentations, electronic and print communications.

Everyone who writes work that managers will be evaluating.                                  
To get RESULTS, your on-the-job writing— even in the digital age—still demands powerful communications skills.
