Personal Trainer
Writing Skills Enhancement for Executives

Do you find yourself a bit winded after a workout with a business letter? Do you panic at the thought of sweating over that marathon presentation or report? Are you interested in pulling more weight and improving results with your Web site content or corporate blog? Do you need a “personal trainer” to help you get your writing in better shape?

Just like a personal trainer, I can help you tone up your writing and give your messages more muscle. As we work together, you learn to develop new techniques, establish new habits and build on what you already know about writing so your written communication says just what you mean in the best way possible.
           
I’ll set up a 3-stage training schedule that will suit a busy executive’s time constraints while allowing me to

• evaluate your writing,
• work with you to find ways you can improve your writing and
• be available to you while you get comfortable with the changes
  you’ve wrought.

This is a customized program of one-on-one instruction, tailored to your capabilities and weaknesses. Contact me to discuss how I can help you shape up your writing.

Writing for Results
Writing Skills Workshops

I’ve taught writing skills to people in organizations large and small across the United States. My workshops have provided middle managers and executives with the tools to write personal and professional communications that say what they want to say and get the responses they need.

Using a combination of lecture and hands-on group interaction—plus humor, common sense and a host of practical examples—I will show you, your organization’s executives or your department’s team how to write effectively using proven communications tools and techniques. Participants will come away from their workshop knowing how to pinpoint and develop their key message and then put it where their readers can’t miss it.

My workshops can be customized to your needs, such as writing news releases that get printed or developing a company newsletter that works.

public session.
