Description of the Chapter
This chapter is the foundational chapter. It explains the needs for effective communication skills in
workplaces, discusses the costs of poor communication, stresses benefits of improving communication,
outlines criteria for effective messages, introduces the importance of following conventions, explains why
ethics is so important in business communication, explains how corporate culture affects the business
environment, and demonstrates how to analyze and solve business communication problems. Students
should return to the concepts in Chapter 1 throughout the semester as they analyze audiences for the
messages they write and the presentations they deliver.
Learning Objectives
LO 1-1 Describe the benefits of good communication.
Communication helps organizations and the people in them achieve their goals. People
put things in writing to create a record, to convey complex data, to make things
convenient for the reader, to save money, and to convey their own messages more
effectively.
LO 1-2 Explain why you need to be able to communicate well.
The three basic purposes of business and administrative communication are to inform, to request
or persuade, and to build goodwill. Most messages have more than one purpose.
The ability to write and speak well becomes increasingly important as you rise in an organization.
LO 1-3 Describe the costs of poor communication.
Poor writing wastes time, wastes effort, and jeopardizes goodwill.
LO 1-4 Describe what communication on the job can look like.
Communication—oral, nonverbal, and written—goes to both internal and external audiences.
People in organizations produce a large variety of documents.
