What is the role of writing and persuasion for an entrepreneur? How does that relate to what you hope to get from the course?

I agree with atmisner, that being able to communicate effectively with the people around you is one of many great skills one must possess on the path towards becoming an entrepreneur. I believe writing and persuasion are skills that are vitally necessary to effectively communicate. If one cannot adequately communicate what their entrepreneural ideas are, then they will not be able to take the steps necessary to make their dream/business plan a reality.

I would like to gain the skills in this class to better impart my ideas with others in a business/professional work environment.
