Course Description for Business Communications

Communication is the exchange and flow of information and ideas from one person to another. It involves a sender transmitting an idea to a receiver. Effective communication occurs only if the receiver understands the information or idea that the sender intended to transmit. Many of the problems that occur in an organization are the direct result of people failing to communicate. Poor communication leads to confusion and can cause a good plan to fail

Studying the communication process is important because it contributes to the understanding that integrates the members of an organization from top to bottom

In this course, we will apply the principles and techniques of effective business communications through a variety of assignments to help make your written and oral communications clear and convincing. Effective communication skills will contribute to your success in business and in life

The goal is to help you learn to approach business, and especially the demands of business communications, with clarity, intelligence, and respect for colleagues and clients. This course is only open to students whose native language is not English
