Effective
Business English provides a practical means of learning the
intricacies of Business English, and explains in detail how
to communicate effectively, simply, and concisely. Both written
and spoken English are covered in some detail. Also covered
is the less tangible but equally important art of correct
verbal and non-verbal communication with customers or co-workers.
In addition, a new section covers the effective use of email
as a medium.
One
of the most important aspects in Business English is correct
pronunciation, and this is covered through the use of audio
tapes which provide a model for correct pronunciation and
phrasing of English Business words. Audio tapes also aid in
learning some of the rules of spelling, and more will appear
in future as a supplement to the written section of this course.
Business
English is like any other form of English, except that it
relates specifically to English as used in a business context.
It includes how the language is spoken in the workplace, in
inter-office and inter-company communication using letters,
memos and reports, and other techniques. All in all, it can
be considered a style of communication, both written and verbal.
When communicating in Business English, there are a few principles
that should be followed:
If you are employed by a company that is English-speaking,
and you are unsure of your English skills, then you should
take this course.
Positions in management and administration require not only
a thorough knowledge of the company's product or service,
but also communication skills - in written as well as verbal
form. In business, both verbal and writing skills in English
are vital to the successful execution of your duties. The
ability to convey one's ideas and instructions internally
through memos and reports, and externally through contact
with customers, buyers and other businesses, is now recognised
as a vital facet of good management.
Effective Business English will teach you these skills, and
will thereby make your whole work experience easier, more
productive, and more personally rewarding.
