Writing Style & Tone

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Raffles has evolved into a premier international education group, thus our challenge is to look and sound like a unified group of colleges and universities.

We need to strive for a distinctive and engaging Raffles voice that reflects and reinforces our brand attributes; thus we must avoid sounding disjointed and bureaucratic. The messages should be communicated clearly and succinctly, projecting a common vision, without jargon or abbreviations.

When writing or speaking, don’t forget to incorporate the following tone of voice:

  • Authentic
  • Confident
  • Empowering
  • Inspiring
  • Spontaneous
