Writing skills allow leaders to clearly and concisely convey their thoughts on paper.
Learning to write well is a critical component of strong leadership. Leaders must be able to effectively share their message, vision, and direction in a manner that can be easily interpreted by a wide audience.
Writing skills include a leader’s understanding of their audience as well as the appropriate format to convey their message. Leaders with strong written communication skills understand the impact that composition, style, and structure have on a document and the reader’s ability to comprehend it. They also pay attention to grammar, punctuation, and thoroughly proof-reading their work.
