TL;DR: Hurley Write Better Reviewing Techniques
Better reviewing techniques help teams evaluate documents more effectively by focusing on clarity, accuracy, structure, and purpose. Strong review skills ensure that writing meets organizational goals, reduces errors, and improves overall communication quality. This page explains how thoughtful reviewing strengthens collaboration, speeds up revisions, and helps writers produce stronger drafts. Hurley Write’s training teaches teams how to assess content objectively, provide actionable feedback, and streamline the review process for more efficient and consistent results.
How much time and energy does your team devote to reviewing and editing? And how often is that time and energy rewarded with improved documents?
In most organizations we’ve worked with, we often find a broken review process. The process isn’t standardized, which results in lots of wasted time spent reviewing; comments aren’t useful because they focus on “pet peeves”; and writers are frustrated because they don’t understand the comments.
The result is typically no real improvement to documents. The good news is that your team can learn strategies to provide better feedback in less time.
“In a recent article, Harvard Business Review identifies strong writing skills as essential across business functions and emphasizes how writing clarity supports opinion leadership and team effectiveness.”
