Target Audiences

Anyone looking to sharpen their writing or presentation skills, particularly in business.

The best writing has life. It’s clear, sharp, and memorable. But often in business, our communications fall flat. In this course, you’ll learn new strategies and practical tools to make your writing, speaking, and presenting truly stand apart.

Full of practical exercises, stories, examples, and tips, this course will teach you:

what “Alice in Wonderland” can teach us about choosing an email subject line
how to put yourself in the audience’s shoes better than anyone else
what number you should always remember before hitting “send” on an email
why six-year-olds hold the key to making more memorable presentations
the most powerful weapon to conquer writer’s block

and much more.

What makes this course different?

1) It’s immensely practical. We write every day, so any business course should be chock full of examples and practical exercises. That’s how I designed this one. Otherwise, why bother?

2) It’s full of stories. Most people get bored to tears hearing about gerunds or dependent clauses. That’s why I’ve avoided them and gone for personal stories that drive home the key points.

3) It’s tight. Some people want to sit down and watch 12 hours of instruction over several days. Most don’t. We’re too busy. Instead, I boiled down each step to a five-minute video and two-page worksheet. Because, let’s face, you’ve got work to do!

4) It’s fun. Education should be enjoyable.
