Here are your three podcast hosts at a recent - and rare - in-person meeting. We have plans for the next six episodes and will announce dates soon.
Good news for the Words & Actions podcast today: We have secured funding for the next six episodes! Many thanks to lotschool.nl! Our next episode will be on emotion in #business communication - what would you like Erika, Bernard and Veronika to discuss?
We did it! Your friendly podcasters have finished the 2nd edition of the textbook Language in Business, Language at Work. It is now with the publisher for review and we are completing the web materials for teachers and students. And we have ideas for the next podcast episode!
Few people are happy about their finances in January. We cannot help with the money aspect, but we can help our listeners to better understand (and teach) financial communication: wordsandactions12342078.wordpress.com/2024/12/17/epi… #fincomm
We have now recorded an episode on financial communication, including a roundtable with three experts who know the field both as academics and as practitioners. Watch this space for the drop!
Listeners will be pleased to hear that a) regular, bi-monthly episodes will start again in January, and b) we will do an extra episode on financial communication before then. Think accounting is all just dry numbers? Think again!
Two of our interviewees were guest speakers at @LancasterUni's Culture & Communication symposium today: @roadtobabel (Doris Dippold) on intercultural pragmatics in human-chatbot interaction & Jane Lockwood on how (not) to manage virtual team meetings. 👏🏼 wp.lancs.ac.uk/culcom/
Here's a snippet of the cover for our revised and re-imagined second edition of the textbook - to be revealed in full on publication!
We're making progress on the second, revised and re-imagined edition of the Language in Business, Language at Work textbook. But we miss making the podcast and can't wait to get going again in September! We have several ideas for our next episode - any requests from you?
Here are your favourite podcasters with their personal fan club 😉Joanna Chojnicka, @Lotte_vanPoppel, @DimitriSrf We met to make progress on the second edition of the Language in Business, Language at Work textbook and we did - so expect a new podcast episode in late summer!
After looking at business communication #textbooks in our last episode, we are now working away at the new version of Language in Business, Language at Work: with a third author, restructured contents and updates throughout, it's a major undertaking. wordsandactions12342078.wordpress.com/2024/02/05/epi…
If you are teaching business communication, what are you looking for in a textbook? In our latest episode, we discuss advice and agendas in #textbooks (including our own). wordsandactions12342078.wordpress.com/2024/02/05/epi…
