Summary

The leading text in business communication, Communicating at Work takes a pragmatic approach that features a strong multicultural focus, a heavy emphasis on effective presentations, and a pedagogical program designed to encourage group activities and skill building. Its combination of clear writing and effective use of tables makes this text an excellent teaching tool.
