SUMMARY:Write Like the News
DESCRIPTION:Lead with the future — not background — for lead-ership\, especially in a crisis. That’s the most important of eight journalism skills that will transform your writing. The others: write your readers’ language\, be positive (to be both clear and upbeat)\, lay out logically\, be consistent\, be precise\, be concise and choose strong verbs. (Plus a Speak Like the News skill: avoid “uptalk?”) Emulate the vivid news examples you’ll see in this workshop\, and you’ll strengthen your writing voice with lively\, engaging news style. At 7 sharp\, we’ll critique TheWallStreetJournal.com\, seeing how to communicate your main point in just a few words. To cover as much ground as possible\, we’ll have just a few writing exercises and most of them will take less than a minute each.
