How should employers combat poor e-mail writing skills?Please be very specific and detailed.

It is a challenge or employers to tackle the issue of writing, but it is something that can be done.  The first premise might be an elementary one, but is often overlooked.  In writing emails, especially professional ones, it is not to be written as something spoken between two people.  In emphasizing the official nature of correspondence, this might allow employees to better understand how to compose emails that reflect a professional state of being.  Since emails are seen as professionals, it should be stressed that "texting spelling" should not be featured.  For example, the word "for" should actually be spelled out and not represented by the number "4."  Another example would be the word "you" and not "u."  In stressing that email is professional, asking employees to hit "spell check "or copying the text into a word document and spell checking it would also be beneficial.  Finally, professional emails shouls be polite, but also direct.  In emphasizing email as a direct means of communication, there might be a decrease in extraneous thoughts and ideas, which could minimize poor writing skills.
