July 2010

In July’s edition of Write Away, we have an Emphasis exclusive: the latest project from our Research Centre reveals how the press may have influenced the UK’s recovery from the financial crisis.

You’ll also discover the proper etiquette for making the Queen your pen pal (or for writing a letter to any titled individual) and how to use the ever-useful word ‘however’.

Plus Emphasis trainer Jan Bateman gives you her quick tips for getting the most out of email; we put the dignity into policies in Ban the bull; and Rob Ashton explains why training and development decision-makers need a strong written voice.
