Helping reviewers help writers.
Course Overview
The Planning and Review components of the professional writer’s process often get overlooked in favour of just writing – even overwriting. The ‘tone from the top’ needs to ensure an appropriate culture of both upfront planning and subsequent review so that writers can thrive in a supportive environment and ultimately meet client expectations.
Course Objectives
This session will help senior-level leaders and reviewers understand and appreciate the three critical components of the professional writer’s process. From there, learners will receive guidance on what they can do to build their people and make sure they get what they need to produce high-quality documents.
