First, managers on assignment, most especially those with little or no experience of the region, will find that it addresses many of the questions that are likely to arise as they attempt to manage diverse workforces within the region. Second, students of management, managerial communication, culture, and cross-cultural communication will benefit from the scholarly introduction it provides to these topics both in general and within the specific Gulf context. To bridge the interests of these two different groups, this volume provides an extensive set of concrete solutions and advice as well as an accessible discussion based on current academic research. Both types of readers will navigate these two strands easily and with interest. The book offers an overview of the diverse workforces of the Gulf, an introduction to culture in the Gulf, communication among different cultural groups within the workforce, and how best to achieve effective intercultural communication. It summarizes the different approaches to management that exist in the region and also looks at typical negotiation styles. The final chapter consists of case studies designed to provide a practical insight into a range of topics and problems relating to managerial communication in real-world Gulf situations. 410 0$aCorporate communication collection.$x2156-8170 606 $aCommunication in management$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aAmericans$xEmployment$zPersian Gulf Region 606 $aForeign workers$zPersian Gulf Region 607 $aPersian Gulf Region$xCommerce 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aArabian Gulf 610 $across-cultural communication 610 $aculture in the Arabian Gulf 610 $aleadership communication in the Arabian Gulf 610 $amanagement styles 610 $amanagerial communication 610 $anegotiation strategies 610 $awomen in the Arabian Gulf 610 $aworkforce localization 615 0$aCommunication in management 615 0$aAmericans$xEmployment 615 0$aForeign workers 676 $a658.45 700 $aGoby$b Valerie Priscilla.$0936405 702 $aNickerson$b Catherine$f1965-, 702 $aRapanta$b Chrysi. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465346803321 996 $aManagerial communication for the Arabian Gulf$92109315 997 $aUNINA
