Course overview.
Built for experienced writers ready to move from clarity to mastery. We work the patterns of elite technical writing — the pyramid principle, the design of arguments, the editorial discipline of cutting hard, and the structural choices that distinguish a white paper that gets cited from one that gets skimmed. With substantial practice on real material.
Who it's for.
Engineers, consultants, researchers, technical specialists, policy professionals and senior analysts who already write competently and want to write at the level of the best examples in their field. Particularly useful for professionals whose career growth now requires their writing to perform at executive-audience level.
What you'll learn.
The pyramid principle and argument architecture
Barbara Minto's pyramid principle — the foundational structure used by McKinsey, the FT and the better white papers of the consulting world. SCQA framing, MECE structure, top-down argument design, and the structural editing discipline that compresses long material into clear short material.
The editorial discipline
The sentence-level and paragraph-level disciplines of the best technical writers: ruthless cutting, the difference between hedging that protects and hedging that weakens, the language of confident-but-calibrated claim-making, and the editorial passes (structure, argument, line, copy) that distinguish polished writing from posted-first-draft writing.
Forms — white papers, proposals, executive memos
The structural patterns of the three highest-stakes technical-writing forms — the white paper that builds your firm's authority, the proposal that wins the work, and the executive memo that gets the decision. Practice on real briefs and peer review using a structured rubric.
