Effective business communication with Chris Fenning
I’m an award-winning business author, trainer and speaker, on a mission to help technical and business professionals communicate clearly.
Clear communication at work is a skill you can learn.
I help make it easy.
Communication skills have a profound impact on the success of team projects. But many professionals don’t always find it easy to communicate with colleagues: meetings that get stuck in the details, technical proposals that obscure really great ideas, presentations that fail to achieve their objectives, and emails that stay unread.
I help solve all these problems with my books, online courses, team talks and one-to-one training. My proven techniques are based on 20 years’ experience in project, team and leadership roles in companies around the world.
Welcome to what I call the business of communication.

A few of my clients
The First Minute
My multiple award-winning book is a step-by-step guide for clear, concise communication in everyday work conversations.
Being concise is not about trying to condense all the information into 60 seconds. It’s about having clear intent, talking about one topic at a time, and focusing on solutions instead of dwelling on problems.
Effective Emails
Want fewer frustrating emails at work? Replies that actually answer your questions? How about shorter, clearer messages?
Then this book is for you or your team. It’s a straightforward guide to removing the pain from writing and receiving work emails. It’s the communication skills class we needed at school but didn’t get.
The First Minute Workbook
Whether you are heading towards senior leadership, in the middle of your career, or a recent graduate, my workbook will help you build the critical skills for clear and concise communication at work.
