Advantages of our approach


  • The program is driven by management, which is fundamental to comprehensive and lasting corporate culture change.
  • Having implemented a corporate policy shift you can then promote your organisation as one committed to plain English in all its dealings with customers and clients.

  • We bring your written communication into line with your customer service goals and corporate image.

  • Our strategy helps secure consistent writing standards across the whole organisation.

  • Staff who use the documents 'own' the new ones: they are enthusiastic about plain English, know how to write in it, have worked on the new documents themselves, and are happy with them.

  • The new documents can become models for others when they write individual documents.

  • Staff and managers can now write their own individual letters and other corporate documents in plain English.

  • This strategy avoids the pitfalls of "ad hoc" approaches to business writing, which may improve individuals' writing styles but often lead to tensions and misunderstandings about corporate writing standards.
