Try to rid your writing, especially business writing, of unnecessary words. They take up space, look impressive only to naive readers, and say nothing. Below are some examples that I've seen recently.

1. The extended team provides expertise and carries out tasks in their areas of expertise.

2. The recommended deployment plan for the deployment of this project is a thirteen-week deployment. The plan calls for deploying...

3. The procedure also standardizes whatever elements of the implementation can be standardized while ensuring that special business requirements are still left available.

I still haven't quite figured out what the writers were trying to convey in all of these cases.

Also, remember what your third grade language arts teacher told you. Don't use the word that you're trying to explain in the definition.  The following just need to be rewritten:

1. Click SAVE to save your information.

2. Click the column header to select the column header that you want selected.

Technical writers need to make sure that they are consistent. Use the same verbiage each time you refer to saving or printing.
