Ownership of a writer’s work is very important. While at school your communication only

your employer. What you write at work represents not only you but also y department or your
employer.
• Think about the ways they will react to what you have to say.
• Think about them as if they were right there in front of you while you talked together. The
communication must affect in specific ways the individuals you are addressing
Instead of receiving the message, people interact with the message to create meaning. While reading,
we build larger structures of knowledge from small fragments of sentences.
Responses to a communication are shaped by a total situation surrounding the message. Such factors as
the purpose of reading the readers’ perceptions of the writer’s aims, their personal interest and stake in
the subject discussed, past relations with the writer.
On job people react to each part of the memo, report or other business communication as soon as they
come to it.
