Let’s be honest. The world of business writing is a mess. Wordy reports bogged down with technical language. Memos without a point. Press releases that go nowhere. Not to mention an endless sequence of PowerPoint presentations that make you want to hit the screen with an ax. Sound familiar? Guess what? It doesn’t have to be that way. Based on his best-selling books on writing, author and writing coach Roy Peter Clark will offer these antidotes to your writing poison:

Attendees can expect to learn:

How to harness the power of simple storytelling.

How to make your prose crystal clear.

How to explain something so that readers can pass along that knowledge.

How to write irresistible beginnings and memorable endings.

How to tell your company’s story in a clear and effective way.

How to convey what is most interesting and most important.

How to avoid procrastination and writer’s block.
