Everyone wants to be able to speak more communicatively in business, especially since communication skills will determine how well you succeed.
Take these three key thoughts with you and may find yourself on the way to making better relations and communications in business.
1.
Write Respectfully - Just because you happen to have a Masters in a subject doesn't make it very easy for others to read the same terminology.
Whenever you are communicating in business, make sure you write according to your audience's level.
Also, write the way you speak, so that you're not sounding too stiff or condescending.
Instead, try to stay conversational and relaxed, it tends to work better.
Watch out for technical language and slang, too.
2.
Write When You're Calm - We can't expect everyone to have a good day every day, but the point is that if you're upset or angry, you don't want to try and write a business communication.
Give yourself time to cool off before you try to send that email, and when you do write it, make sure you carefully choose your vocabulary.
3.
Proofread - Whenever you are preparing for a presentation, writing a letter or email, or even just getting ready to have a phone call with a client, it's important that you run things over before you actually do that.
If that means writing your email, then proofreading it a few hours later to check for errors.
The same goes for running phone calls or presentations before you do so, you'll make sure you know exactly what it is you want to present before you do it.
