PowerWrite

Write more clearly, excitingly and persuasively

This workshop is particularly useful if you‘d like to: write clear, emotionally engaging, persuasive messages and documents; or refresh and fine tune your skills.

You‘ll get most out of PowerWrite if you‘re:

  • a graduate trainee looking for an introduction to writing for business;
  • someone who‘s taking on a management or supervisory rôle for the first time;
  • a starter or middle manager; or
  • if you‘ve solid management experience, but have English as an extra language.

PowerWrite in a nutshell

The workshop has three parts:

  1. Tailor what you write to have the greatest impact on your readers;
  2. Strip away bad habits and use clear English to make your writing easy to understand and more powerful;
  3. Use a clear structure to persuade your readers step by step.

The workshop keeps theory to a minimum and uses exercises and games to keep you constantly intrigued and engaged. The high interactivity helps make sure that what you learn sticks.
