Official document writing: typo is "accident"
Once published an article in the corporate tabloid entitled "The Bottom Line of Official Document Writing".

The theme is: No matter what the material level is, there should be no low-level mistakes such as typos and typesetting, which is the bottom line of official document writing.

Share an example. A few years ago, the deputy director of the parallel unit in the same industry came to the company for exchange and discussion. In the office, Xiao Liu is in charge of outreach and Xiao Zhao is in charge of meetings. Seemingly ordinary business, something just went wrong.

On that day, the deputy director and his party came to the conference room. Stare at my table card as soon as you come in.

After sitting down, it is normal for company leaders to make opening remarks. However, the deputy director first read his name on the table card: "Wu Liang"! I would rather have no conscience than no food. Hahaha!

It turned out that Xiao Zhao mistyped the name of the deputy director of the meeting and wrote "Wu Liang" as "Wu Liang"!

Speaking of which, I think everyone can understand how embarrassing it is. Xiao Zhao's face was red and he was sweating every second. He couldn't wait to get into the crack. Fortunately, the director of the office took the initiative to take over, and Xiao Zhao survived the "difficulties".

Because I have a good personal relationship with Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao told me that Xiao Liu mistyped the name of the deputy director, which can be proved by a short message on his mobile phone.

However, I said to him: although everything happens for a reason, I can only blame myself, my credulity and my carelessness. I should check on the website of another company in advance.

What is commendable is that Xiao Zhao did not give up Xiao Liu, the director of the office and the leader of the company, but took the blame alone.

People don't teach others, but teach others. The lesson is profound. It can be said that Xiao Zhao caused an "accident" in business.

Simply share another example. A member of the company has a slogan: turn losses into profits in one year, create benefits in three years and embark on the road of healthy development in five years.

However, when Lao Tang, the director of the department, wrote a speech to the party secretary, he took it for granted that turning losses into profits in one year, creating benefits in two years and moving towards a healthy development path in three years.

As soon as the party secretary finished reading it, he realized that when he heard the employees "chattering", he immediately ridiculed: Hey, who promoted the company's goals, the pressure is so great! Emotional intelligence is high enough, but only the secretary knows the embarrassment.

In fact, after sharing the above two cases, there is no need to do too much summary and sublimation.

For official document writers, if they don't firmly establish a sense of norms and deeply realize the seriousness of typos and low-level mistakes, they are undoubtedly swimming naked and touching the red line. The risk of losing face and never using it is a matter of minutes.

In a word, accuracy and standardization are the premise of official documents and the bottom line of writers. A mistake is an accident. If it is small, you will be fined. If you are big, it will directly determine your "future destiny"!
