    Sir as far as Tone is concerned, the ONLY thing we need to consider apart from ofcourse not using derisive statement is this:

    Briefing notes, Report, Memorandum, Letter-

    If written by internal staff member, then “WE need to/should/could”
    If written by external consultant then “XYZ/ Board/ senior management”

    Press release-

    Always- “XYZ/ Board/ senior management”

    Correct? Please sir can you double confirm this? I know I have asked before, but just getting little jittery about these small things….

    I don’t think the small things matter much.

    You can’t use ‘We….’ if the writer is external. Otherwise ‘The company…’ is fine.
