Let’s face it: grammar might not set your heart racing, but it’s a fundamental tool in the world of business communication. Every now and then, it’s worth dusting off those grammar skills and getting back to basics.

With today’s focus on social media – quick posts on LinkedIn, photos on videos, videos on TikTok – it can feel like there is no role for traditional writing as a form of business communications.  Not true!  Writing remains critical for internal and external audiences, as a way to communicate essential information in a way that others can access and use. 

The best writing is clear communication that your audience can understand and use. This helps increase effectiveness and accountability – in other words, your writing will have greater impact, because people will know what to expect next or what to do. 

Writing is a key skill and core competency in most workplaces. Why? Writing communicates essential information in a way that others can access and use.  Every piece you create should have a goal, and the structure and words in that document should fulfill that goal.
