Optional self-study preview
Try a clearer business email
Explore the skill with this sample brief, then note what you would like to practise with the trainer.
Practice brief: Rewrite this fictional internal email: ‘Regarding the report, some things are not there. Please do the necessary and revert soon.’ Assume the missing items are the May sales figures and a short explanation of the change from April.
- Write a subject line that names the report and the action required.
- Replace vague phrases with a specific request and an invented deadline. Keep the tone professional and the sentences easy to follow.
- Read your draft as the recipient: identify the requested information, the deadline and who should receive the reply.
Check your result: A colleague should understand the request without a second email. Note the vocabulary, grammar or sentence structure you found difficult so you can discuss relevant workplace examples when enquiring.
