Business Writing: Know Your Readers and Your Purpose
by Skillsoft
To write effective and appropriate business messages, you need to know your readers. Are you addressing multiple readers or a single reader? How much knowledge do your readers have of your subject, and what issues concern them most? These are just some of the questions to consider before you start writing your message. Closely tied with knowing your readers is knowing your purpose for writing. Do you need to inform customers about a new policy, or do you need to persuade employees to adopt a new business practice? Knowing your purpose will focus your message, making it clear to readers why it is important to them. In addition, identifying who your audience is and what your purpose is will guide you in selecting an appropriate tone for your business message. Tone is a significant element in writing – one that affects how the reader will respond to your message. Tone refers to the writer's attitude toward the reader and subject matter as expressed in the way the message is written. Have you ever received a memo that annoyed you by its tone? For example, it might have been patronizing or too familiar. The key to controlling the tone of your writing is to put yourself in the place of your reader. And you need to carefully choose the words that will create the right tone for your message. When you know who your readers are and what your purpose is, you can tailor your tone to suit them. This will help you create more effective business messages. This course addresses ways to identify your readers and to create messages that convey the appropriate tone for different reader roles. It also outlines how to write effectively for the three most common reasons for writing a business document – to inform, respond, or persuade.Audience: Individuals, at any level in an organization, who want to refresh or refine their basic business writing skillsObjectives: Business Writing: Know Your Readers and Your Purpose identify key characteristics to consider when analyzing the targeted readers of a business document identify attributes to consider when defining your relationship to the reader determine the appropriate written message to use for a given situation recognize the value of knowing the appropriate tone to use to address your readers use the appropriate writing tone to communicate a written business message for a given purpose and audience Duration: 1 ...

Business Writing: How to Write Clearly and Concisely
by Skillsoft
People who have no problem communicating clearly when they speak sometimes struggle to make themselves understood when they write. That's because the ability to write clearly and concisely is a skill that requires effort to master. Acquiring this skill gives you the tools to create effective business documents for readers who lack the time or the patience to search for essential information buried in long, rambling e-mails or reports. Writing clearly also entails organizing content logically and appropriately for the subject and reader. Clear and concise sentences get you part of the way. But you need to organize these into coherent paragraphs that convey the relevant information in the most effective way. This course describes ways to make your writing more clear. Specifically, it covers the importance of using short, familiar words, appropriate connotations, concrete and specific language, and transitional words and phrases. The course also discusses ways to be more concise and explains some best practices for organizing content logically and appropriately.  Audience: Individuals, at any level in an organization, who want to refresh or refine their basic business writing skillsObjectives: Business Writing: How to Write Clearly and Concisely recognize sentences that reflect the techniques of clear writing recognize how to apply the techniques of concise writing to a given sample of business writing identify ways to organize content to increase reader understanding Duration: 1 ...

IT Project Management Essentials: Initiating and Planning IT Projects
by Skillsoft
If you want your IT project to complete successfully, you need to get it off to a good start. During the early stages of a project – the initiating and planning phases – a project manager should clarify objectives and requirements and create a project plan that delineates, among other things, what needs to be done, when it needs to be done, and how much it will likely cost. Although the plan may change as the project progresses, it’s important to get down as much detail as you can at the very beginning. This course describes how to initiate an IT project effectively. It then focuses on three key areas of planning – developing a work breakdown structure, schedule planning, and cost planning.Audience: IT project managers and IT professionals preparing to take on IT project management responsibilities, as well as managers who support IT project managersObjectives: IT Project Management Essentials: Initiating and Planning IT Projects match steps you take when initiating an IT project to examples of how they are carried out sequence examples of the steps in developing a work breakdown structure recognize the benefits of being able to develop an effective work breakdown structure sequence activities for developing a project schedule match project cost estimating techniques to their descriptions Duration: 1 ...

Every aspect of project management is affected by the organization, the social environment, the project's stakeholders, both internal and external, and many other aspects of the context in which the project is carried out. Understanding this context is critical to good planning and good decision making as the project progresses toward achieving its objectives. This course provides an overview of the project management discipline as outlined in A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) - Fourth Edition published by the Project Management Institute (PMI®).

IT Project Management Essentials: Testing Deliverables and Closing IT Projects
by Skillsoft
Because it's a significant point in an IT project, the closing phase has its own set of processes and activities.

An orderly conclusion also helps guarantee that end users' needs and expectations have been met and that stakeholders are satisfied. This course describes the closing activities for IT projects, covering how to test IT project deliverables to make sure they meet requirements, which activities help close an IT project effectively, and how to set up maintenance and support.Audience: IT project managers and IT professionals preparing to take on IT project management responsibilities, as well as managers who support IT project managersObjectives: IT Project Management Essentials: Testing Deliverables and Closing IT Projects match steps in testing IT project deliverables with their activities recognize examples of activities you carry out during the closing phase of an IT project identify the value of carrying out closing activities for an IT project recognize tasks in setting up maintenance and support for completed IT projects Duration: 1 ...

IT Project Management Essentials: Managing Risks in an IT Project
by Skillsoft
IT project managers deal with risks every day, including potential cost overruns, schedule delays, design constraints, hardware defects, and software bugs. Without a plan or process in place to address the possibility of unpredictable and unwanted loss during a project, managers may be dealing with risks reactively, rather than proactively. Potential trouble areas need to be identified early and dealt with quickly and appropriately so a project doesn't go over budget, miss deadlines, or negatively affect an organization's reputation. IT project managers can plan effectively for handling the possibility of negative outcomes by following a risk management process. Such a process can help them monitor and control risks throughout a project's life cycle. This course describes the steps in a risk management process for IT projects – from identifying the risks and documenting them, to analyzing and developing appropriate and effective responses.Audience: IT project managers and IT professionals preparing to take on IT project management responsibilities, as well as managers who support IT project managersObjectives: IT Project Management Essentials: Managing Risks in an IT Project match common sources of risks in an IT project to their examples match tools for identifying risks in an IT project to their descriptions identify effective risk statements for a given IT project recognize how to analyze risks in an IT project match risk response strategies for an IT project to examples that illustrate them Duration: 1 ...

IT Project Management Essentials: Monitoring and Controlling IT Projects
by Skillsoft
The aim of project monitoring and control is to compare actual progress and performance against the project plan. An IT project manager must analyze any variances from the plan and identify what actions may need to be taken. If project managers don't monitor their projects on a regular basis, they won't know which tasks are behind schedule or over budget, or what the issues or risks are. IT projects can be complex, with many variables, and it's important that project managers know, at all times, how the project is progressing and what is causing any slippages. This course describes how to monitor the progress of an IT project, analyze variances from the project plan, and control changes that may be requested during a project's life cycle.Audience: IT project managers and IT professionals preparing to take on IT project management responsibilities, as well as managers who support IT project managersObjectives: IT Project Management Essentials: Monitoring and Controlling IT Projects calculate variances for a given IT project scenario recognize how to analyze variances in an IT project sequence the activities in the change control process for an IT project Duration: 1 ...
