- Identify when jargon is proper. When credibility is important, jargon may be useful. When understanding and engagement of a varied audience are necessary, excessive jargon can be costly.
- Ask yourself if you can communicate the same idea in a simpler way.
- If you want to reduce excessive jargon use in your company, start from the top.
- Letting others know why you want to refrain from excessive jargon sends a message that you're confident in your abilities and more interested in being understood.
