Slack It: How To Write Better At Work

  1. Get to the point quickly.
  2. Write as if explaining to a newbie or someone who doesn’t know what you do.
  3. If you are using acronyms, spell them out.
  4. Focus on the key idea at all times, from start to finish. Also add a summary and next action point to move forward.
  5. Provide options to invite engagement, like by using a poll.
  6. Do not use a passive voice.
  7. Shorter sentences work extremely well, but can turn monotonous. Use varied sentence lengths, but keep the format simple.
  8. No rambling.
