POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE MESSAGES
Positive messages are easier to deliver, since they tend
to cover good news. Depending on the message and its
purpose, the writer needs to ensure that the content and
purpose is clearly understood and deadlines are set as
needed. Just because the message is positive does not
mean it is not important.
Successful presentations sell an idea through the utilization of entertaining,
educational, and engaging techniques. They should never be based on one-
way communication methods. How you present it is equally important as
the content. The presenter needs to create a comfortable free rein
environment that encourages engagement and socializing. The goal of any
presentation is to inform, persuade, request action, and build relationships.
