Format:Mass Market Paperback
I've just ordered another 10 copies of this book to give out to my staff and even to my clients. It's essential that my team know how to convey their ideas clearly and persuasively. "Writing that Works" accomplishes all that and more in a down to earth and entertaining style.

I don't want my competitors to read this book
17 Oct 2000
Format:Paperback
This was a terrific book which I would recommend to all of my clients, colleagues and friends -- but not to my competitors. It gives too many good ideas on how to get your message across effectively, succinctly and clearly.
The style is particularly effective -- bullet points with examples and real world examples of how to write more effectively.
As a securities analyst following technology companies, I am in a very writing-intensive business, where I need to get my point across as effectively as possible in as few words as possible.
At another level, I am alarmed by the caliber of writing that I see from people who we recruit -- people from major universities and graduate schools -- who are unable to write effectively. This book will be a useful tool for them -- better late than never.

A Communications Handbook for Managers
12 Jan 2001
Format:Paperback
If Strunk and White had gone to business school, this is the book they would have written. It's an antidote to the interminable memo, the pointless presentation, and the endless e-mail.

An invaluable aid throughout one's business career
6 Jan 2001
Format:Paperback
Communicating the `right' way is fundamental to business success. Writing That Works offers readers several `right' ways to written communications. It is different from other guides in several ways:
- It keeps current with times
- It is clear, concise and informative
- It addresses a broad group of business readers-students to CEOs
- It is practical and easy to apply.
Like a good mentor, this book will be an invaluable aid throughout one's business career.
