Most business schools spend a lot of time training students on how to conduct formal presentations. However, the fact of the matter is that young professionals will spend much more time in their daily work life communicating via email than they will delivering formal presentations. They will also spend more time performing informal presentations than formal ones, but that’s another topic for another time.
Quite honestly, business schools do not do a good job of training students on how to properly communicate via email, and as a result, many young professionals have shot-themselves-in-the-foot, thus stunting their early career progression.
