TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Communication also relies on knowing a lot about your client's thinking
and personality type & there's a lot of fun stuff to do along this line:
Good books in this area are written by Florence Litthauer (sp?),
Personality Plus, and Richard Rhoan (sp?) Positive Personality Types.

Situation sketch:
I have been asked to give a 45 minute presentation on "communication" to
beginning innovators and entrepreneurs in the medical device field. My
presentation will be part of a half day seminar which is to give these
people tips on how to market their ideas. Two other speakers will talk
about "the added value of your idea" and "product oriented development".
The seminar is in Holland and the participants will be Dutch.
