There is
a simple, step-by-step and systematic
approach to writing brilliant reports, proposals and staff papers every
time; and you’ll learn how to write them, in our course, even if you have
never written a single report in your life. The
alternative is to learn the skill by trial and error; which might take years. Bonus Value: We will be at your service (via email) to help you to write your reports, free of charge, within six (6) months after the course. You may also consult us, via email, on any matter regarding report writing for six (6) months after the course. |

Brief Description
As
executives, few things command more respect from our bosses than our ability to
write and present our thoughts systematically and persuasively, especially when
we write reports, proposals or put up staff papers.
In the
army, staff officers are proudest when our bosses do not read our reports in
detail; but only skim through our recommendations and say ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. This
shows their confidence in our abilities to study a situation thoroughly and
systematically and make accurate recommendations. Needless to say, it may take
lots of brilliant reports written over many years to achieve this enviable
standard.
As
executives, with our goal to get into ‘Management’, what separates the men from
the boys (ladies, please pardon the expression, I mean ‘the children from the
adults’ of course), is the ability to write excellent reports and papers.

Outline :
In my 1-day
course, I am going to cover everything important I learned and used about
report writing, from my 10 years service as a staff officer in the army and
more than 16 years as a trainer in Business Communication.
I am
convinced that nowhere else, other than the SAF, do we write so many reports.
It is just part of the culture that even junior officers have to learn to ‘put
up papers’. As a result we become ‘experts’.
I will
cover the following in enough detail; so that you do not ever have to attend
another course on the subject:
·
Writing
Concept Papers
·
Writing
Progress Reports
·
Writing
Investigative Reports
·
Writing
Proposals
·
Writing
Staff Papers
Everything you learn in the course will be applicable,
perhaps with a little adaptation, to any working environment

Targeted Audience:
·
Any executive or anyone who intends
to be an executive or who wants to rise to Management one day
·
Anyone already in Management, but
who finds it a struggle to write reports, proposals and staff papers
·
Anyone
who just wants to add one more skill to his or her resume
