My First Venture as an Author!
Greetings Blogworms- Old and New!
Pray listen, for I have some news for you!
Since September 2011, I have been co-writing a book with Fiona Talbot- a global leading author and expert in Business English!
The book is called Improving Your Global Business English: The Essential Toolkit for Writing and Communicating Across Borders and is by Kogan Page; http://www.koganpageusa.com/product/Improve-Your-Global-Business-English,2112.aspx
Brief Description:
Intercultural business communications is a minefield of cultural expectations, where English is almost universal currency. Brochures, reports, manuals, and all other documents – both print and digital – intended for a global audience need to accommodate readers who are unfamiliar with American [or British, Australian, Indian, etc] idioms.
To communicate across borders with customers, suppliers and colleagues, business people – native and non-native speakers alike – need to learn how to streamline their syntax, adjust their choice of words and free their message from references that are particular to their own culture.
Improve Your Global Business English defines the differences between local and global English. We show you how to profile prospective readers, customers and audiences, understand sub cultures and make an impact through written English. We also elucidate on how to best understand and write for different media as well as provide punctuation and grammar tips.
