Writing Seminar
March 3rd, 2008 by Brian
We’re having a business writing seminar here at work (3 days x 6 hours.) As part of the seminar each of us are going through the steps of writing an actual business document. Since my projects are mostly governed by non-disclosure agreements there’s no way I can use the seminar to write an actual report or protocol. I elected to write a “mock” document as part of the course.
The title of my document is “The prevention and mitigation of unorthodox crisis situations at the [name of Brian’s employer, omitted.]”
In the document I’ll be covering things like:
- interdimensional incursion (Black Mesa)
- Xenomorph infiltration (Nostromo)
- Xenomorph infestation (LV426)
- Reanimation viral outbreak (Raccoon City)
- Demonic possession (Twin Peaks)
- Coping with AI Self Awareness (Aperture Labs)
The final product will probably be unimpressive (let’s face it - we’re talking about a business seminar here) but regardless I’ll post the final result here when it’s done.
