Students preparing for a career in business and the professions have a valuable tool in this engaging overview of the skills needed to communicate... successfully in every stage of professional life: securing a job, making a good first impression, and advancing into management and leadership positions. Writing in an informal, conversational style, the authors discuss the fundamentals of business communication in today's global workplace, providing practical advice, meaningful applications, and sample documents to illuminate the discussion. Young and Travis liken the career-building process to creating an image or brand that employers recognize as a good fit for their companies. They cover the outward "packaging" components like verbal ability and appearance, progressing to the critical follow-through skills that contribute to a consistent, professional image: interpersonal competency, excellent writing skills, technical proficiency, problem-solving ability, enthusiasm and flexibility, and a strong ethical foundation. Ethical Encounters boxes throughout challenge readers to make ethical choices, while objectives and key terms in each chapter frame and reinforce key concepts. Abundant exercises prompt readers to analyze their communication strengths and weaknesses and provide ample opportunities to apply the chapter content.

Combining perspectives on the interplay of two areas of primary importance to our lives--business and society--this anthology brings together a wide... range of readings on the subject. Topics include the historical evolution of the business enterprise, the emergence and development of the labor force, and the impact of the international marketplace. Castro concentrates on the moral and social aspects of business, the way it affects national economy, the environment, careers, the disadvantaged, government, and public opinion. Combining the idea that a good business education must also be a good liberal education, Castro is careful to show the connections between the way Americans have done and thought about business in the past, with the way Americans think and do business today. Considering the abundance of socioeconomic issues in everyday life, he shows that business ethics has always been an integral part of business, and that this continues to be true. He shows that the historical, social, and ethical dimensions of business are an inseparable and necessary component of business education. Chosen for their student interest and accessibility, the readings can be used for a variety of different courses covering business and society.
