THE MULTI-LEVEL BUSINESS WRITING WORKSHOP
FOR THAI ADMINISTRATORS ONLY!!

 

Based on the principles followed by famous and successful business writing workshops
which are producing outstanding results around the world ....

WHO NEEDS THIS WORKSHOP

Secretaries. Middle management personnel and supervisors. Top company executives and directors. Any company doing business with foreigners, if there is a risk that poor or badly-organized English writing may cause loss of face, or income, or misunderstandings.

WHAT THIS WORKSHOP WILL NOT DO FOR YOU. You will not become as skilled in English language document writing as professional English native speakers. You will not, as if by magic, stop making a few minor spelling or grammatical errors. You will not avoid the need to have professional English writing experts, such as those of our own FAX-WRITE^® Language Skills Division "brush up" your promotional pieces or legal documents.

WHAT THIS WORKSHOP WILL DO FOR YOU. You will learn to write:

You also will learn:

HOW THE WORKSHOP IS PRESENTED. Unlike other business writing workshops requiring four consecutive 8-hour days of practice (which is difficult for many companies to arrange and too intensive for most staff members attending), our workshop is scheduled to be conducted at your place of business ― or at any other location you designate ― over Saturday and Sunday on two consecutive weekends! The 8-hour "sessions" include a one-hour lunch break and two 10-minute "mini-breaks" in the morning, and again in the afternoon. There is one table for each group of four learners, and there must be exactly four at each table, to ensure efficient practice and group learning. The presenter himself, and an assistant presenter, assists groups at each table. As a permanent reference source, a complete, hardbound student manual will be provided at no charge to each staff member, manager or administrator who attends our workshop!

HOW THE TEXT-AND-TALK WORKSHOP WAS DEVELOPED. More than a year of research of internationally successful Business Writing Workshops was conducted, and an analysis performed regarding how such a workshop would need to be improved in order to make it successful forThai business persons, as opposed to those in Europe, South America or Japan. From this research, we have developed the following content features especially for Thai persons (and which no other Business Writing Workshop in the world currently offers)!

ABOUT OUR PROFESSIONAL PRESENTERS.

1. Most of our general business and banking and finance presenters are Thai-fluent, and without doubt among Thailand's best and most popular English conversation and writing instructors -- who have taught successfully in over 60 major Thailand companies and organizations, including, as examples, Bangkok Steel Co., Ltd., Eli Lilly (Thailand) Inc., The Inchcape Group, The Provincial Electricity Authority of Thailand, Thai Farmers Bank PCL, The Ministry of Finance of Thailand, Thai Military Bank PCL, Siam Commercial Bank PCL, Lotus Supercenter, Toshiba (Thailand) Ltd. and United Thai Shipping Co., Ltd.

2. Most of our manufacturing and engineering presenters are Thai fluent, and a number have been Production Controllers, Material Controllers and Foreign Liaison Managers for international companies -- several possessing multiple years of specialized on-hands business administration experience in the following areas: Electrical Engineering; systems analysis; advanced computer programming for manufacturing; scheduling and material/cost management; logistics; stock control; forecasting and manpower selection (recruitment); Project Program Controlling (PERT); bank alarm systems; air conditioning systems; power panel manufacturing; import-export documentation; insurance claims; preparation of tender estimates; business writing, and customized course creation ― and actual in-the-classroom Business English instruction in Thailand and other countries!

At the moment, our excellent presenters are preparing themselves for a time soon to come, when they will have full presentation schedules already: by thoroughly training the most experienced business persons from our staff of more than 70 professional English instructors now working for TEXT-AND-TALK ― to do presentations of our Business Writing or Banking and Finance Workshop ― and many of these instructors have business backgrounds so extensive that presenters the world over might be envious!

WORKSHOP FEES. Without any customizing content to the needs of Thai business persons, one other reasonably good Business Writing Workshop now available in Thailand, costs:

THE DIFFERENT LEVELS, BY STAFF RANKING.

1. FOR FOUR EXECUTIVES ONLY: organized for privacy, maximized workshop (practice) activity and top administrator content. Ample accommodation also is made for the specialized enquiries and explanations which this highly-intelligent group will require of the presenter and his assistant!

2. FOR EIGHT SECRETARIES ONLY: To achieve maximized learning, practice and interchange among same-level English writing-and-translating staff.

3. FOR 12 MANAGERS AND SUPERVISORS ONLY (though key secretaries may also be included, if you wish).
