Managing Business and Professional Communication not only prepares students for relevant, informative, and persuasive public presentations in the workplace, but also prepares them to manage cultural diversity, sales, customer-service, audits, briefings/reports, team-building, and other communication proficiencies vital for success in today’s workplace.
