| Abstract
|
:
|
"How people communicate at work, whether face-to-face or by email, chat, text, phone or video, is central to how organizations function and vital for both personal and business success. This book covers all the skills required for interpersonal work communications, including impression formation and management, interaction dynamics, power, persuasion and conflict. It demonstrates how these elements impact on work activities such as interviewing, negotiating and change communication, and on organizational issues like knowledge sharing and teamwork. Exploring all aspects of interpersonal communication at work and covering all the new communication media, this practical book will equip the reader with the skills needed to communicate effectively. [It] compares face-to-face and mediated work communication practices and explains how technological mediation impacts on work behaviour; contains varied activities, exercises, examples, cases and interviews; grounded in theory and up-to-date research; focuses on employability skill development"--Publisher's description.
