Step 4: Adopt Good Communication Principles

Yikes! Where do you even begin?

OK, so now you’ve chosen your communication medium. You are sitting at your computer and you need to actually write your fact sheet, report, web summary, presentation, etc. Yikes! Where do you even begin?

Well, we are not going to go into nitty-gritty, technical detail on how you create these materials here, but you can certainly contact your NEDARC representative for assistance on this matter. What we are going to discuss now are the universal rules of good communication that apply to any method of communication you may have chosen.

How Do You Communicate Your Message Effectively?

There are four basic communication laws that will apply to any communication method, whether it is a fact sheet, a presentation, or even a personal phone call. These laws are:

  1. Write for your audience
  2. Make it visually appealing
  3. Make it readable
  4. Make it credible
