Business Writing That Works
Recommended Prerequisites
Research Skills
Course Overview
We all know what good writing is. It’s the novel we can’t put down, the poem we never forgot, and the speech that changes the way we look at the world. Good writing is the memo that gets action and the letter that says what a phone call can’t.

However, with practice you can feel more confident about your own writing. This course will give you the tools to become a better writer.
Learning Objectives
-
Learn the value of good written communication
-
Learn how to write and proofread your work so it is clear, concise, complete, and correct

Self–Leadership
Recommended Prerequisites
No prerequisites are required for this course.
Course Overview
Self-leadership puts together taking responsibility for our outcomes, setting direction for our lives, and having tools to manage priorities. Self-leaders work at all levels of an organization. They are front-line workers in every possible role, middle managers, and CEOs. Self-leaders like Walt Disney and Wayne Gretzky worked hard to achieve their dreams without using the term self-leadership. However, they have clearly demonstrated that being in control of their behavior and results, focus, practice, and learning were necessary to achieve their goals.
Self-leadership requires a commitment from individuals to decide what they want from life and to do what’s necessary to get the results they want. This course will help participants internalize the four pillars of self-leadership and to make meaningful, empowered choices while taking action to get where they want to go.
