English for Executives & Managers
English for Executives & Managers is a practical course in professional communication for people who already speak English well and want to use it with greater precision and confidence at work. It is written for managers, team leaders, and other professionals at the upper-intermediate and advanced levels, and it suits both independent study and classroom use.
The book contains eighteen chapters, each built around a core area of workplace communication: the language of leadership, building professional relationships, running meetings, delivering presentations, negotiating, phone and remote communication, difficult conversations, giving feedback, delegating, performance reviews, motivating teams, interviewing and hiring, professional email, reports and proposals, internal announcements, communicating change, cross-cultural communication, and business idioms.
Every chapter follows the same clear structure. It opens with warm-up questions, then moves through a reading passage, a vocabulary list, a writing activity, a realistic workplace dialogue, more vocabulary, a grammar focus drawn from the chapter's theme, and short practice and review exercises. The grammar points are chosen to fit each topic rather than to follow a fixed sequence, so every one is tied to language you would actually use.
At the back you will find profiles of ten well-known companies for building business vocabulary, a glossary of key terms with example sentences, and a complete answer key for checking your work.
Used steadily, the book helps you sound clearer, more natural, and more assured in everyday professional situations.
