- Problem: Career advancement for deserving men and women was impeded. Why? Supervisors were unable to compose winning nominations. Poor writing obscured stellar accomplishments.
- Solution: I developed my unique writing methodology … and taught my troops to write!
- Result: In scant time, we transformed our unit into the one to beat. So popular was my approach, I instructed thousands of people for the next 15 years.
I still empower others to gain that critical edge and seize fleeting opportunities with my workshops, webinars, private coaching, and online courses. With clear, concise, and compelling text, you can:
- ACE your resume, cover letter, interview, post-interview thank you note
- NAIL input to your performance review
- FRAME a winning argument, critical to on-the-job success
- COMPOSE gripping marketing material and web pages
- GENERATE email that people actually read
- GARNER support for deserving causes
- WIN grants and contract bids
The beauty … learn this methodology once and reap its benefits for a lifetime!
Testimonial: “Colonel Bass, I was an airman in your squadron. Because you taught me to write, I was selected for Officer Training School, recently retired as a lieutenant colonel, and am now vice president of a defense contracting company. Thank you!”
