Making Expensive Business Communications
September 6th, 2010Imitating Ugly Business Communications
Communication lies at the heart of any business. As a draughtsman I quickly had to learn that you must assume the person who was looking at your drawing knew nothing. But, what will these new communications in business be? To compound the problem both parts were tending to be referred to by the same name.
Clearly there are good reasons for such thinking and many organizations take that advice to heart and it becomes policy. There is little doubt that Contemporary Business Communication has been forever changed by the information age. Communication is about the transfer of information, and it is important for all companies, and organizations to do communication audits to insure the right information is being passed on.
This may increase the effective of cell phone type communication by a factor of three. I’ve often read in books about writing that you should think of yourself having a conversation. To compound the problem both parts were tending to be referred to by the same name. And unfortunately, they have also been a studier of human societies and civilizations for long enough to see the problematic nature of the flow of information.
So, I guess the question you should be asking since all this is coming fast is; Have you considered how you will use this technology to do all you do better in your business? Well, think about it for a second, you can collaborate on designs. This simple thing is to never assume anyone knows anything. The folks who have the information do not even trust themselves with the Business and Administrative Communication they have because it’s too easy to make a mistake. This did not mean believing they were stupid (something business people often wrongly assume about those who read their communications) but that they just knew nothing about what I was trying to get across.
