Communicating for Results: A Canadian Student's Guide - Tapa blanda

In today's fast-paced, multi-tasking work environments, successful communication means more than getting the message across: it means getting noticed and getting results. Communicating for Results: A Canadian Student's Guide offers practical, classroom-tested instruction not only in grammar but in the rhetorical techniques and persuasive strategies that students need to become effective writers and speakers. Its hands-on, skills-based approach uses models, organizational plans, workshops, discussion forums, quick-reference guides, and checklists to simplify the writing process while banishing writer's block and easing fears about public speaking. A bonus CD packaged with the text features an invaluable package of additional resources, including information on and examples of informational and analytical reports and 26 full-text models of different kinds of professional communication. Designed to make effective communication achievable in even the most demanding workplace environment, Communicating for Results is equally suitable for classroom use and personal desktop reference.
