“I would have made this shorter but I didn’t have the time.”
Winston Churchill
We are bombarded with information on a daily basis, and too often the intended meaning is lost in superfluous words, acronyms and jargon.
When a business fails to convey information clearly, the consequences can be serious in terms of product liability, health and safety compliance, brand reinforcement, contracts, etc. and could even involve litigation.
Language is a powerful tool, and a coordinated language policy will bring coherence to your business and maximize investment in document management systems, where consistent terminology is crucial.
