In today’s workplace, writing is considered a “threshold skill” for hiring and promotion among salaried employees. According to a recent IABC survey, 80 percent of respondents said that “strong writing skills” is the most important consideration when hiring an entry-level professional. While all employees must be able to write, communication professionals must set the standard for precise, coherent and engaging writing in their organizations.
IABC’s 2007 Business Writing Conference will offer training or retraining on the essential skills needed to write clearly and persuasively in the workplace. The conference will help business professionals write for a wide variety of audiences such as employees, shareholders, CEOs and the media. Led by experienced communication experts, this conference will cover writing techniques for web and print media and will help conference attenders to improve their writing skills immediately.
