  • Do this before you write to a colleague or customer

    Updated: 2024-11-12 14:54:40
    A colleague had a bizarre experience recently. While browsing the website of a well-known electrical-goods company, she idly clicked the Get Help button. But instead of taking her to an FAQ page or opening a live chat as she’d expected, to her horror, the button started a live video call. Suddenly, she found herself facing […]

  • How (not) to deliver bad news

    Updated: 2024-11-11 00:46:42
    Some rules are made to be broken – even ones that I laid down just a few weeks ago. You know how I said recently that it’s usually best to put your main points first? Well, there are some times when that’s not such a good idea. Obviously it’s still true that few of us […]

  • Don’t fall into this research trap

    Updated: 2024-11-10 07:44:10
    The strange thing about writer’s block is often it’s not writing that’s the problem at all. It’s thinking. ‘Thinking is to humans as swimming is to cats,’ the late psychologist Daniel Kahneman once argued. ‘They can do it, but they prefer not to.’ (Kahneman was no slouch as a thinker himself. He won a Nobel […]

  • Why AI writing rarely works

    Updated: 2024-11-10 07:44:09
    Struggling to write is a universal human experience. We all find it hard to some degree, as I’ve explained before. But if the key word is ‘human’, what about AI? After all, ChatGPT is more powerful than ever (even if it has disappeared from the headlines). And AI assistants seem to be popping up everywhere. […]

  • Why my messy writing process works

    Updated: 2024-11-10 07:44:07
    It’s tempting to think that writing comes easily to everyone but ourselves. But if we could see inside their heads, we’d probably find that their experience is much closer to ours than we thought. Writing is not a natural process for the human brain. So when humans write, humans generally struggle. Even I don’t find […]

  • What using long words really says about us

    Updated: 2024-11-05 15:59:10
    How much do big words and flowery phrases really impress our peers? A lot less than many people think, it seems. I’ve talked before about the strange, alternative language that we adopt whenever we sit down to write a document. I call this language Documentese, and it’s full of long or complex words and phrases […]
