Dr. Bliven's book covers all of the main aspects of business communications and provides it in easily digestible chapters. This book is a must-read!
-- David Fogarty, Chief Marketing Analytics and Data and Technology Officer, Evernorth Corporation

Employment communication, social media and crisis communication being the last few areas covered in this book on business communication essentially make this book extremely valuable, and more than what I expected at the start. The quiz and the summary at the end of each chapter are other value additions. The lucid way of writing the book makes it easy to comprehend for the Masters students of business and communication, and the practitioners of corporate communication, public relations, brand communication at their initial stage of career. Many examples illustrate the points made, though largely from the Western world. It is surely a useful book as usual contents and special contents related to business communication are both covered in a balanced manner.
-- Prof Ujjwal K Chowdhury, Vice President, Global Media Education Council

Business Communication Essentials by Dr. AnnaMaria Bliven covers the principles of effective and productive communication for business professionals. I received an ARC, ebook format from NetGalley and Vibrant Publishers. The book is well-structured and easy to read, beginning with an introduction to communication and progresses to more advanced principles. I liked that each chapter offers a Summary and Quiz, and how Dr. Bliven provides actionable tips, although, I would have liked more examples to accent the tips and strategies provided. Overall, a well-researched guide that can be a valuable resource to anyone learning or looking for a refresher on the fundamentals of business communication.

Communication Dos and Donts

I have worked for someone who has poor (or no) communication. This book would be a perfect gift for him lol. There's so many ways to use this book (as stated within the book). One of my favorites is the little quizzes at the end of chapters. I think it is important to test your knowledge to ensure that you are actually retaining it. I also like the use of caste studies to see real world examples, which is often more beneficial than just reading in and of itself. One part of the book I like most is the section on active listening. I think a lot of people could benefit from understanding that communication is more than just talk, talk, talk.
