REFLECT

“Tone is present in all communication activities. Ultimately, the tone of a message is a reflection of the writer and it does affect how the reader will perceive the message” (Driscoll, 2010, para. 1).

“The business writer should strive for an overall tone that is confident, courteous, and sincere; that uses emphasis and subordination appropriately; that contains nondiscriminatory language; that stresses the ‘you’ attitude; and that is written at an appropriate level of difficulty” (Ober, 1995, para. 1).
