Clear thinking is neccessary for clear writing. For stylistic help, read "On Writing Well" or "The Elements of Style." The best advice in there is to simplify, which is the opposite strategy of the dreaded "business-speak" style.

It also helps to have some personality and humor. You get that by reading funny writers, laughing, and loosening up.
