Review: Great For Leadership & Communication - I purchased this for a New Leader Program with my government job. I was impressed with how detailed and accurate the information was in the book. It covers emails, professional letters, proposals, and even presentations. This book has been updated 3 times to keep with the current mode of written communication and has been a huge asset in how I communicate with my coworkers, contractors, and the public. Just remember, No Mumbling. Don't know what I'm referring to? I highly recommend this book to find out. It will benefit you in many different ways. Review: Really improved my writing - The pyramid scheme really works: start with the main point, list the supporting points, then expand on them. Starting with the main point seems like such a simple idea, but many times, I used to lead up to the main point, by which time readers got bored. Listing the supporting points is important from a summary and lets the reader know why you are making the argument you are making. If they don't trust you on a point, it's quite easy to jump over to the place where you provide supporting evidence. I used to think I was a good writer (author of 8 technical books, 50+ research papers, and 100s of articles), but this simple concept has really helped improve how effective my business writing is. ## Features - E-mails, memos and letters that get read—and get action - Proposals, recommendations, and presentations that sell ideas - Plans and reports that get things done - Fund-raising and sales letters that produce results - Resumes and letters that lead to interviews - Speeches that make a point ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #45,174 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #13 in Business Writing Skills (Books) #57 in Writing Skill Reference (Books) #134 in Communication Skills | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,044 Reviews | ## Images ![Writing That Works; How to Communicate Effectively In Business - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61HRV+bww7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great For Leadership & Communication *by J***L on March 23, 2023* I purchased this for a New Leader Program with my government job.

It is short, succinct and relevant - even (or especially) in our era of email, text messaging and social media. While the book is getting dated, the principles of Keep It Simple Stupid, short and to the point, and use proper grammar - including examples. We all need reminders of how to write effectively, and it is a skill that degrades over time. Email and social media make it worse. Read and refresh. Great for students as well. ## Frequently Bought Together - Writing That Works; How to Communicate Effectively In Business - The English Grammar Workbook for Adults: A Self-Study Guide to Improve Functional Writing --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/8165188-writing-that-works-how-to-communicate-effectively-in-business](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/8165188-writing-that-works-how-to-communicate-effectively-in-business) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
