“A lightbulb moment on effective writing at work”

Level up &write like an elite professional at work

Your writing has a huge impact on your career. Emails, strategy papers, presentations, etc — writing is literally the #1 thing you do at work.

But most people underestimate its importance and overestimate how good they are at it.

That's because your years of education at school & uni taught you the wrong when it comes to what great writing looks like at work.

  • Our attention spans have shrunk.
  • How we consume info has changed.
  • There's more noise to cut through.

Power Writing is a course for bankers, consultants, investors, lawyers and execs that teaches you how write like an elite professional, so you're more impactful in getting ahead and driving outcomes at work.

Good news: most companies will cover the cost of our course as part of the education or L&D budget. Here's how to get it reimbursed.

"Kal was great, I highly recommend this course to those in corporate/professional services - especially when you are starting out! I have recommended that my workplace implement this across the firm.
I am 1.5 years into full-time work and still benefited from it and I am already implementing the principles and skills learned in this course."

Richard Rouse

"The Power Writing course was excellent! The content was highly actionable and I am applying principles every day to great effect."

Abigail Widjaja
Asialink Business

"I enjoyed the examples Kal went through which applied the principles (good & bad comparisons), and practical components (in-class and homework). I liked how Kal's presi's incorporated memes and humour to communicate points across, and the opportunities at the end to ask questions."

Francois Steyn
RSM Australia

"Provided a lightbulb moment on effective writing at work.

Really enjoyed the presentation and have asked our RSM learning team to consider this for firm wide training."

Kal

"This is the course I wish someone made me do when I started work.

I got all the training on how to build a model, format a presentation, public speaking, etc... but it wasn't until about 6yrs into my career that I realised I still wasn't great at writing.

Writing is the single most important skill you can have. I learned these lessons the hard way, so you don't have to."

Not your typical instructor.

Kal is an ex-Macquarie Capital banker who has started and sold multiple businesses — including Letter of Intent (an M&A publication loved for its writing style).

With a track record of building organizations, motivating teams, and making stuff happen, this course condenses 12+ years of learnings across banking, investing and media so you can be 10x more effective when writing at work.

Great writing for work is nothing like how you were taught to write at university.

Writing is the #1 thing you do at work

Writing emails, drafting memos, preparing slide decks or crafting reports... that's what your typical day probably looks like.

And that's exactly why learning how to write for work is so key to being great at your job.

And it's your most visible work 'product'

There's nothing more visible and permanent than your written work. Every email, memo and presentation becomes a highly circulated representation of you.

And it's often the first thing people see who might not know you - like that email to a potential client.

But you're never taught how to write for work

Everything you learned about writing in school or univeristy was DOA the day you started work.

Academia teaches us to take out our thesaurus, write long essays and bury the answer in the ending.

The real world is the opposite. Great writing at work is all about keeping it dead simple and saying more with less.

What will I learn in the course?

Power Writing is a no-nonsense course that teaches you how to level up your writing to the next level. You'll learn how to drive more outcomes, faster and with greater impact.

1

Power Writing Principles ("PWP")

Become 10x better at writing for work just by applying the 6 Power Writing Principles.

The Power Writing Principles are a super simple, tried and tested approach that ensure you get your message across, clearly and quickly.

2

Write killer work emails

You spend your entire day sending and reading emails. And emails are most often the first impression you make on someone new (e.g., cold emails to clients).

We teach you the questions you should ask before you even start writing an email + how to structure & write your emails to stand out.

3

Write memos that get read

Long form documents become lasting, permanent artifacts of your work (e.g., strategy papers, blog posts, internal memos that will be read in years to come).

We teach you when to use memos and how to communicate with clarity and impact in long form writing.

4

Create compelling presentations

PowerPoint is where you can leverage visual cues to help communicate your ideas and thoughts. But too often they turn into boring slide shows of uninspiring charts and data.

We teach you how to write narratives for presentations so you can elevate your PowerPoint game.

We'll teach you how to stop getting ignored by writing like this...

...and start getting results by writing with impact & authority

Do I have to start the courses at a certain date or time?

No, Power Writing is a recorded course which means you can complete it at your own pace and on your own schedule. The class still includes homework exercises which I ask you to submit so you can receive very specific and personalised feedback which I share as a video.
