OK, the actual title is "How to Be a Better Writer: Why You Should Include 'Fluff' in Your Business Writing,' but my submitted article was titled "In Defense of Fluff." Anyways, I was really happy to see this as AllBusiness.com is the most popular general business website I've gotten an article published in so far. As I note in the piece, The reason fluff can be necessary is that nonverbal communication lacks an enormous amount of nuance. Psychologists have argued that most communication is nonverbal (possibly as much as 93%). Yet emails, memos, and letters contain only words. Body language is left out and tone is relegated to the inadequate tool of punctuation. In written communication, jokes can become insults, irony can become prejudice, sarcasm can become matter-of-fact statements, and miscommunication can become the norm. This goes against most of what I heard in business school, namely that fluff is evil incarnate and you should "boil down your corporate memos to the raw essentials." There is some truth in this, but it's not that simple in my opinion. Yes, get rid of extraneous stuff, but make sure that you use whatever fluff is necessary to soften things and make sure your point is clear.

For the volume and branched structure, the following factors are important: Coordination. It is important that information is easily and quickly transferred between departments. The larger the system, the more difficult it is to ensure proper coordination. A competent manager should think over this detail to the smallest detail. Coordination. It is important that information is easily and quickly passed between departments. Transfer of authority. The manager is responsible for the whole business, but in fact he is physically incapable of keeping every branch in a large organization under control. For this reason, management responsibilities move down to a level; department heads, deputy directors, and others appear. This not only makes life easier for the general manager, but also provides full control over production. Competence. For each employee in the organization should be assigned strictly defined responsibilities. We cannot allow a person to work in the department to whom this narrow field of activity is alien. Managers are required to ensure that the staff consists of qualified specialists in the relevant fields. Centralization. Despite the large number of managers, departments, the leading role remains with the main leader. Therefore, the powers associated with making decisions and ensuring control over the activities of the company, in general, should be left to him. Manager. In any organization and department, the manager himself is the most important link. It makes decisions, creates monitoring and planning systems, and monitors and analyzes the results obtained. So, management in business is a three-dimensional and branched system, which consists of many fundamental elements. The essence of business management lies in the need to have well-defined goals, as well as developed methods to achieve them. It is worth remembering that only all of these categories together can provide competent management in the enterprise.
From Gizmodo,
Statistician and wine-lover Robert Hodgson recently analyzed a series of wine competitions in California, after "wondering how wines, such as his own, [could] win a gold medal at one competition, and 'end up in the pooper' at others." In one study, Hodgson presented blindfolded wine experts with the same wine three times in succession. Incredibly, the judges' ratings typically varied by ±4 points on a standard ratings scale running from 80 to 100. Via the Wall Street Journal:
I feel substantially better about my standard of $8-12 wine that I drink occasionally.
But it gets worse, In 2001, researcher Frédéric Brochet invited 54 wine experts to give their opinions on what were ostensibly two glasses of different wine: one red, and one white. In actuality, the two wines were identical, with one exception: the "red" wine had been dyed with food coloring.
Honestly, I feel like I could have figured that out, but who knows.
But hey, if you want to drop $180 for a year of access, you can watch James Suckling's 11 lesson "Master Class" on "wine appreciation." Yes, you may be able to drink wine on your own, but you can't truly appreciate it without taking several hours out of your life to study the intricacies of getting buzzed with Mr. Suckling. Here's a preview of this absolutely essential course on how to drink fermented grape juice correctly: |
