Unequivocal Language

Practice your skill at using unequivocal language by describing how each of the following sentences is likely to be misunderstood (or not understood at all). Then improve the clarity of each message by introducing your message with a high-level abstraction and qualifying it with low-level abstractions. To invent meaningful low-level abstractions, you will have to imagine a specific scenario.

  1. You did a heck of a job on that proposal.
  2. There are just a few small problems to clear up.
  3. I just need a little more time to finish the job.
  4. Your job performance hasn’t been good this year.

Take the information from the above activity and apply it to a work situation you have faced.  Specifically focus on how you would deal with it differently now that you have this information.
