Writing effective reports is a vital skill in today’s workplace. Important decisions are informed by reports but the sheer amount of communication in modern professional life means that only the best reports successfully cut through.
Writing effective reports is a vital skill in today’s workplace. Important decisions are informed by reports but the sheer amount of communication in modern professional life means that only the best reports successfully cut through.
Whatever the purpose or regularity of your report, it is important that it is succinct and achieves precisely what you intended to convey.
In this one day course, we look at the purpose of our reports before considering their structure, tone, format and presentation. We will spend a lot of time thinking about how we should plan a report before we type anything; something that few of us do.
This is a practical session. We invite learners to come with something real that they can work on; either a draft of something that they regularly write or are tasked with creating from scratch. We then apply the lessons from the first half of the day to achieve great effective reports. We also build time in to practice. This is a valuable one day that results in greater confidence and more effective communications.
About Us
We started off like most training companies by running face-to-face sessions in soft skills. We soon gained a reputation for our unique engaging delivery style and content.
From traditional beginnings, we have now become a pioneering blended training provider. We specialise in bespoke programmes that are shaped around client objectives and culture. We have a wide range of intervention styles.
We won’t suggest an intervention style unless we are convinced that it will add value. In so doing, every programme and learning journey can be unique but every touchpoint is consistent.
We don’t outsource anything. We design, build and deliver everything so you can be assured of a consistent approach that is on brand, on message and will change your people for good.
Since launching, we have also developed over 250 original courses that have been used in leading organisations around the world. We can also work with your content and create learning experiences that transcend your expectations. All of our trainers and intervention developers have real-world experience.
Many have held senior management positions so bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise that contextualises programmes. If we don’t change your people for the better then we don’t want to be paid.
We are not interested in ‘crank then handle’ training which is not going to result in any positive change. We have actually been known to walk away from work if we couldn’t see a way of bringing discernible change.
We are proud to still work with our original clients, none of whom have ever taken us up on our 100% money-back guarantee. We are still changing and adopting new ways of working and learning into our approach.
Everything that we do is underpinned by proven learning science but we also embrace new technology and listen closely to the needs of our clients.
Poor communication in the workplace is rarely A problem, it’s nearly always THE problem. Our communication skills training gives managers essential strategies and skills to successfully deal with their teams, situations and difficult conversations.
On the first day the business writing training will cover the nuts and bolts of writing: grammar, punctuation and spelling. On the second day we will work on planning, structuring and presenting your work.
Founded in 2005 by Alastair Milburn, multi-award-winning former editor of the South Wales Echo, Effective has always had outstanding communication at its heart. A lot has changed since then and so have we.
Our outstanding Media and Communication department of widely published experts help you to develop a strong understanding of the media industries and trends in media culture and communication.
The ability to handle yourself properly today can sometimes outweigh even your technical skills. If you know what to do, when to do it, and how to do it with grace and style, you’ll have a competitive edge in your career. All business experts agree that good manners promote good business.
