Written

Work done in the built environment space gets done because details have been written down.  Design companies, at the base of it, produce just pictures and words.

And so, it is so very important those pictures and words are clear, concise, and correct.  Just because we have the ability to write long (long!) documents, that doesn’t mean that we always should.

Written communication forces higher precision in our critical thinking skills.  A well-written document carries more weight than a verbal conversation, and that written document is also more permanent. Good writing goes a long way also to amplify leadership ability.
