Emails That Boost Career Success: Look Good, Save Time, and Write Right
Sue Hershkowitz-Coore

A great email gets results and a great emailer enjoys respect and recognition. Being a good writer helps, of course, but more than anything, it's not getting in our own way when we write that counts. Emails that are filled with distractions - poor etiquette, lack of clarity or purpose, negative tone, bad subject lines, useless words - ruin the chance of getting the rewards you deserve. This energetic, interactive and fun session, presented by the author of Power Sales Writing (McGraw Hill) and How to Say It To Sell It! (Prentice Hall/Penguin - 2008) is a must attend for anyone who wants to boost their ability to connect and collaborate through email. You will leave this content rich session with practical strategies to communicate more persuasively and professionally!
 
Learner Outcomes:
  • Transform common "I" centered statements to reader-oriented, action-oriented, persuasive writing.
  • Apply a three-step process to save up to 80 percent in writing time.
  • Revise meaningless or gratuitous openings and closings to compel the reader to read and act.
