Lets face it, report writing isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Do you know people who would rather set their hair on fire rather than sit to write a report. If the thought of writing a report makes you feel like baking yourself in an oven, you are not alone. Here are three reasons why report writing can suck the life out of you.
1. Report Writing is a Skilled Job
Writing great reports, just like running a marathon, requires skill. You must be good at gathering information, organizing it, and then communicating it. Wait, did we mention you also need to have good typing speeds and document formatting skills? If you haven’t developed all these skills (and usually more), then you know why it kills you to write reports.
2. Writing Great Reports Takes Time
Just like a great meal, all great reports are great for one reason - someone took time to make them. I love chapatis. However, I want nothing to do with making them. For me, anything that takes more time to cook than it actually takes to eat, well I leave that to the professionals. Is this what you need to do with your reports? Do you have the time to make your reports sizzle with greatness?
3. Great Reports Demand Complete Focus
And nowadays, time to focus is a hard thing to find, especially at work. It is just a lot easier to tweet away the key learning points rather that create a report with an abstract, table of contents, methodology… and at some point a conclusion. Bad news is that donors, bosses, colleagues, and even the government still require reports. Writing relatively straightforward reports can be a drag if you can’t give them your full attention. By the time your report is done, you will have no idea what the introduction stated.
There’s absolutely no reason for you to die because of writing a report. Rappid Reports handles a wide range of reports and can take on any reporting challenge you have. See our complete list of services here and let’s get those reports started.
