Equally important is how you communicate yourself--your competencies and achievements--to others. Teacher and consultant Richard Picardi takes a long, thoughtful look at the things we all need to understand in order to allow our ideas to be heard and understood in today's noisy, hotly competitive organizations. He covers not just the skills of putting your ideas, recommendations, and analyses in writing, but also the other way in which effective communication is accomplished: nonverbally. He shows you the internal and external roadblocks to effective communication and how to break through them. In Part I, Picardi analyzes the nature of verbal and nonverbal communication. He shows how to recognize and remove internal and external barriers to effective communication and create messages that get the results you want. He then focuses on the specific goals of business communication, showing how the concept of change interacts with all forms of communication--in fact, how change is implicit in them. Picardi lays out the elements of organization that are essential in creating reader-based messages, then explains how to compose the clear, forceful sentences and paragraphs to express them. Later, in Part III, he presents his system of text boxes, showing how to write typical business memos and letters, using direct and indirect patterns of writing to demonstrate different types of messages you want to communicate, and ends with a systematic method to revise and improve upon first drafts. He goes on to apply the principles of reader-based communication, effective organization, and clear expression to proposal and report writing. He shows how proposals differ from reports and how to write both effectively. For training and development specialists, the book provides the material you need to teach these skills to others. 606 $aBusiness writing 606 $aPersonnel management 615 0$aBusiness writing. 615 0$aPersonnel management. 676 $a808/.06665 700 $aPicardi$b Richard P.$f1941-$01804135 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961287903321 996 $aSkills of workplace communication$94352027 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05251nam 2200625Ia 450 001 9910967373403321 005 20240313085808.0 010 $a1-61705-059-8 035 $a(CKB)2670000000279228 035 $a(EBL)1075938 035 $a(OCoLC)821177077 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000782687 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12327663 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000782687 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10747007 035 $a(PQKB)10314382 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1075938 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10629314 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL539946 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1075938 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000279228 100 $a20110922d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aAtlas of vascular medicine $ea case-based approach to current management /$feditors, Emile R.
