Widener Business Foundations- Oral and Written Communication

This module introduces you to best practices in business writing and effective presentation skills to prepare you for your future business career. Effective communication skills are essential for career success, and the kinds of writing and presenting you will do “on the job” are likely to be very different from those you learned in your undergraduate education. For example, in business writing, we swap essays with introductions, for reports with executive summaries; we also swap classroom book reports for well-organized, purpose-driven, and persuasive business presentations. You likely have not engaged in this kind of writing and presenting in the past but this workshop will ensure you are prepared for the “real world!”
