From the Introduction:
This book has been written over several years. The material comes from my weekly newsletter which shares with people in the safety community tips on how to effectively communicate their message. You can check out the table of contents for any specific direction you might be looking for. I recommend that you read all the chapters as you will undoubtedly discover solutions to questions you have yet to ask.
As you read this book always keep in mind the audience or audiences you will be communicating with. Your audience is where everything begins. Remember their viewpoint, their age, gender, job, whatever distinctions you can think of that will allow you to focus and target your messages.
Above all else have fun and enjoy this book. Take notes as you read and feel free to email me questions if you have need of clarification.
