When it comes to writing, do you know how many businesspeople are just winging it? Almost everyone! And it shows in sloppy grammar, incomprehensible language, poorly structured documents, shoddy research, and downright ugly formatting. Whether it’s a simple business letter or a hefty annual report, poor writing looks bad for the organization, and it really looks bad for the person producing it.
Help is now here. The AMA Handbook of Business Writing is a complete A-to-Z reference on everything you need to produce top-quality documents.

You’ll be able to:
· Find instant answers to hundreds of style and grammar questions, such as which words to abbreviate, whether to use “who’s” or “whose,” where to place an adverb, what to capitalize, when to use a comma, which words denote bias, and much more.
