Business Communication/Les communications d'affaires

If you are a CGA or student in the CGA program, you most likely have taken at least one business writing course. Considering the vast amount of communication that occurs in writing, from formal reports to casual texts and emails, it becomes difficult to ignore how heavily you rely on written communication and how readily some of you neglect your writing skills. Business writing should be meaningful and clear. Here are some pointers to help you communicate effectively: 1. Wherever possible, use the active voice to convey ideas clearly and efficiently. 2. Use jargon sparingly, if at all, and include explanatory information where it might promote comprehension. 3. Re-read what you write before dispatching it.
