Avoiding Common Grammar Mistakes in Business Writing
Why is it important to use grammar correctly?
Using grammar correctly projects a professional image for you – it shows that you care enough about your work to write correctly. Poor grammar, on the other hand, may project a sloppy, ignorant or indifferent image for you.

More importantly, using grammar correctly ensures that your message is not distorted or misinterpreted.

This programme discusses the common grammar mistakes that people make in their business writing, and how to avoid these mistakes.
