Writing Effective Emails

How many times have you received a rambling and incoherent email? How many times have you hit ‘Delete’ because you have no idea what the person wants and no time to sort through the long message? The truth is that people don’t have time for long emails, and they don’t have time to try to find out exactly what you want. You have to tell them, in as short an email as possible.

This short session course aims to equip participants with the skills necessary to sharpen up their e-mails so that recipients will read and then act on the information, responding in the manner intended. The course will cover different structures for e-mails, tailored to the requirement of the message, along with some key spelling, layout and grammar issues that can trip writers up.

This is a short introduction to writing e-mails, but will be interactive and use practical exercises to get delegates to relate to the issues involved. These will help individuals to review their own style and identify any points of development which they need to tackle.
