Stephanie Burgess, Trainer Capital One (UK)Written communication, whether electronic or on paper, is an essential business tool. Not taking enough time to review your written documents can not only harm your own reputation, but also severely damage your organisation’s brand.
Written communication that has basic grammar and punctuation errors, repetition or missing words will create a negative image in the reader’s mind and, in the case of erroneous financial information or other numerical data, can have far-reaching consequences.

Whether editing your own work or your colleagues’ documents, you will be given tips and techniques on how to work with a wide range of documents – letters, emails, brochures, web pages, reports and more.
