Never start sentences with these.

In Simplify Communication training I discuss removing excess and simplifying sentence structure to make it easier for your audiences to quickly understand. 

7 ways you should never start a sentence:

1. Because...

2. In addition to...

3. Not only do we...

4. Whether you're...

5. Please note that...

6. As you may have seen...

7. As we lean into this work...

 

A recent training participant said, "We need to 'lean out' of using 'lean into'." 😂

 

Contact me to discuss training possibilities. We'll discuss these examples and explore your communication to identify potential improvements. It's fun, shocking, and actionable. Little changes make a big difference.
