A Simple Step Towards Career Success by Helen Wilkie

Compétences en rédaction et sont parmi les plus fondamentaux et les compétences essentielles dans le monde du travail d'aujourd'hui. Quel que soit le travail que vous faites, vous aurez probablement besoin de communiquer par écrit à un certain point.

Writing skills are among the most basic and essential skills in today's workplace. No matter what work you do, you are likely to need to communicate in writing at some point. Whether you write to customers, colleagues, your boss or the general public, it's in your own interest as well as those of the company that you do it well.

Unfortunately, too many people avoid writing because they know it's not one of their strengths, while others do write, but do such a poor job it doesn't do their professional reputations any good.

Here are five good reasons to improve your writing skills:

1. When you write well your ideas will be more readily accepted because you express them clearly. A well-thought out, clearly written memo will receive a more positive response than a rambling verbal story.

2. Good writing creates a good impression on readers, whether they are customers, colleagues or bosses - and, of course, the opposite is true for poor writing.

3. When customers read and understand your messages, that is good communication. Customer service depends on good communication.

4. If you write well you'll stand out among the crowd of poor souls who can't string a grammatically correct sentence together.

5. When you write well and easily, you won't put off important writing tasks, and your productivity will improve, which will be beneficial both to you and your organization.

If you want to have a successful career, it's important not only to do your job well but to be seen to do so. Improving your writing skills is one of the simplest and fastest ways to do that.
