Career Progression - and Waffle!

[LeeMills77]

Hi all,

I need help with a problem I have - I never seem to answer the question at work. I receive email from my managers asking me how an account is progressing and instead of keeping it short and to the point, I waffle and explain things they don’t really need to know and include information they never asked for. I don’t know why I do it, but I know when I’m doing it.

I need to practice at this - are there any books or guides out there that I can practice with to help me answer the question? I don’t really want to go to my managers and ask this as I’m a little embarrassed by this.

I know I can do this and I’m a good learner - I just need some guidance and quickly.

Anybody have any suggestions at how I can write an email and answer the question first time?

Thanks all,

Lee.
