It's All of Our Business: Communicating Competently in the Workplace

By J Dan Rothwell

Winner of the Textbook & Academic Authors Association's Most Promising New Textbook Award

It's All of Our Business: Communicating Competently in the Workplace is a concise, conversational text that balances practical skills with scholarly insight. Grounded in a communication competence perspective, this text provides students with the communication skills needed to have successful careers in the 21st century.

With its strong focus on power dynamics, such important topics as sexual harassment, gender bias, bullying and abuse at work are best analyzed for their causes and prevention. The text's unique coverage addresses several topics often ignored or given only glancing coverage in competing texts, including leadership, power, conflict management, teamwork and group dynamics. Engaging case studies, novel illustrations, personal narratives, vivid stories, and abundant humor create an engaging resource that students will actually want to read. Abundant research will be cited in a free-flowing writing style.
