Abstract:
Business Grammar, Style & Usage is the first ever book to focus on the art of business writing and speaking based on the way executives actually write and speak, instead of being focused on a third party's (such as an unknown author or publication) writing guidelines. The book focuses on topics such as often misused punctuation and spelling, misused terms, developing a writing style, and top 10 rules for writing and speaking in an articulate manner. The book also covers the proper ways to write a cover letter, memo, speech, executive summary, article/report, and even the do's and don'ts of email. Regardless of your current aptitude for writing or speaking, this quick read and easy to follow book is guaranteed to make you a more polished and articulate business writer and speaker.
