'Here’s a problem we see all the time in business writing. How often must you read a memo or an article filled with long sentences, big, jargony words and, ultimately, no point?

This week’s reflection point: How often do you talk with an expert only to then realize that they are great at giving advice rather than following it? In other words, they either have not implemented or do not use their own expertise. For example: The contractor who has never finished remodeling his own house or the software developer who is not using his own software.
