Great tips. I especially related to those 2:

1. Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) - first time I'm hearing this acronym, I wish everyone will live by it... It can save tons of time in written communication, but also in meetings. I would add to also have a clear bottom line at the end, if people lose you when you start to ramble.

2. Bring solutions, not problems or complaints - this one is the hardest for me to do with my manager. I mostly use the 1:1s to complain and vent, but over the long term it's not very productive, and should be accompanied with some suggestions.
