This workshop helps you identify wordiness in your business writing and equips you with strategies to write concisely. Join us to learn simple yet powerful techniques to eliminate redundancies in your writing.

MANAGING STRESS

Research has shown that people under stress undermined the working memory to such a degree that when they were asked to make decisions, they tended to give up thinking things through and use their emotions to make decisions.
