Intercultural Communication for Business
Author: Elizabeth A. Tuleja

ISBN: 9781457533624
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Dr. Tuleja is an Associate Professor at the Fanning Center for Business Communication, Mendoza College of Business, University of Notre Dame. Dr. Tuleja's area of expertise is in Intercultural Communication and Global Management. She holds a Master's degree in Intercultural Communication and a Doctorate in Education from the University of Pennsylvania, where she taught at the Wharton School for many years before moving to Hong Kong where she was on the Faculty of Business at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Her research includes examining the cultural influences on language and communication at work and she utilizes a variety of online cross-cultural tools in her teaching and consulting. She has travelled and consulted in over 30 countries and both led and participated in educational and humanitarian ventures in Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Spain, Morocco, China and Hong Kong. She continues to teach in China as well as study Mandarin. You can follow her blog regarding intercultural issues in global management at http: //globalbizleader.com. Intercultural Communication for Business is direct, simple, and compact. Dr. Elizabeth Tuleja of the Mendoza College of Business examines what it means to communicate in a diverse workplace - whether at home or abroad. This book looks both broadly and specifically at issues and opportunities that are increasingly important as the business world shrinks and grows more interdependent. As time zones blur and fewer restrictions are imposed on the global movement of capital, raw materials, finished goods, and human labor, people will cling fiercely to the ways in which they were enculturated in their early years of development and socialization. In order to become more effective in daily interactions at work, home or abroad, it is essential that people develop a keen awareness and understanding of the differences that exist regarding human values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors. In today's global workplace, we must be able to embrace such differences and acknowledge them as opportunities for learning and enrichment rather than forces for confusion and trouble.

Linguistic Pragmatics of Intercultural Professional and Business Communication
Author: Elena N. Malyuga
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319687441
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
This monograph presents the result of the authors’ scientific research on the development of cognitive discursive approach to issues of intercultural professional and business communication (IPBC) and the study of the language of professional communication, the links binding the language with non-linguistic and extralinguistic realia in the framework of cognitive linguistics, as well as oral and written communication in intercultural professional business discourse. The authors proceed from the assumption that IPBC can only reach maximum efficiency provided that its participants assimilate its inherent norms and rules and are able to skillfully implement these norms and rules to verbalise their cognitive activity in the sphere of professional business interaction. Topics covered include: analysis of the theory of business communication, of codified and uncodified vocabulary, theory of euphemy, and euphemisms used in intercultural professional and business communication.
