Description

Students require excellent communication skills in their business and academic lives. Management Communication is a step-by-step guide for learning specific techniques to help them improve those skills and achieving clarity and brevity in business writing. The authors follow a four-part approach to communication instruction: explain it, try it, evaluate it, perfect it. They provide graduate and undergraduate students, managers, and managers-in-training with the tools they need to become masterful communicators. The new 3rd Edition has a greater focus on "strategy through skill" and provides more opportunities for applying skills and insights to a broad range of fields for success in future careers in accounting, finance, marketing, management, information systems, telecommunications, and HR.
