Professional Business Writing: Reports, Minutes & Correspondence
In organisations, writing is decision infrastructure — a report that buries its point costs every reader the time it saved its writer.

Most professionals write more than they do anything else, and almost none were ever trained to. This programme fixes that with working documents, not grammar drills: reports structured answer-first, so a director gets the point in the first paragraph and the evidence behind it; minutes and notes that record decisions and actions defensibly; email and correspondence with judgement — tone, escalation, the message better not sent; and the editing discipline that makes everything shorter and sharper, including a working session on using AI drafting tools without surrendering quality or confidentiality.

Programme agenda
Built for the decisions no textbook prepares you for
I.Writing for decisions
- Answer-first structure: the point, then the proof
- Reports and briefs: one page that carries, appendices that support
- Plain language with precision — short is not simplistic
II.The working documents
- Minutes: decisions, actions, owners — recorded to be relied on
- Email judgement: tone, cc politics, the escalation done in writing
- Templates that raise the floor without lowering the ceiling
III.The editing discipline
- Cutting half without losing meaning: the working method
- AI drafting tools used well: prompts, verification, confidentiality
- The final pass: reading as the reader, not the writer
