The difference is in the understanding of the word Clarity.
1.
clearness or lucidity as to perception or understanding; freedom from indistinctness or ambiguity.
2.

Clarity to a communicator means simplicity and ease of understanding. [...]
Writing about He Knew He Was Right
I am making my first venture into Trollope having been inspired by A Round-Heeled Woman.
And it reminded me of how intransigent people can be in their relationships with other people - and why.
A brief plot synopsis can be seen on Wikipedia - but what it doesn’t cover is the clever [...]
Adapted from Well, Everything has to Start Somewhere on our work blog.
And more than that, to quote Jane Magé (a former boss):
We are where we are, let’s see where we can go from here.
A quote which I find useful for a variety of occasions…
So, we’ve got this Facebook presence - what are we doing with [...]
Is pangasius the new snoek? Well, being Friday, it has made a breadcrumbed appearance on the OU canteen menu.
Now don’t get me wrong, I’m all for fighting the depletition of the North Sea. But I suspect this owes more to Brakes’s than it does to its oriental origins.
I’ve just been having a cup of tea with a colleague who, it strikes me, is the perfect factotum: efficient, organised, quiet, amazingly discreet, tactful, diplomatic and a wonderful problem solver.
And clearly these people are vital in the world of internal comms, these are the people who make organisations work.
A while ago she mentioned in [...]

You can almost picture the festive scene….
Enter small child home from school with mud artfully splashed up back of trousers and trailing satchell behind them.
Small child: Mu-um, oh yeah, we was s’posed to get costumes for the play…
Anyone got a child’s monkey outfit for ages 3 - 5 years I can borrow [...]
I am taking a more than usually keen interest in Early Day Motions and Number 10 petitions these days.
In fact, last week, for the first time in my life, I wrote to my MP. And of course that entailed finding out the bugger’s name!
(To his credit, he signed the EDM as requested and sent me [...]

My colleagues Stuart Brown and Jed Cawthorne have pointed me in the direction of this post, and it certainly chimes with some of the amorphous and ongoing debate going on here.
There’s a lot of tinkering going on using Facebook and a variety of other Web 2.0 tools - but as yet only [...]
See Overheard
Overheard at lunchtime at work.
Woman 1: Yeah, I don’t like reading books in the first person, you know, I did this, I did that…
Woman 2: Yeah, it’s self-gratification isn’t it?
Woman 1: Yeah, I much prefer a good story….
