Ober prepares students for business communication by employing a hands-on approach, connecting topics, examples, and exercises to the modern workplace. The text provides ample opportunity for students to practice their oral and written skills, and includes strategies for using email, voicemail, the Internet, and other innovations in communication technology.Continuing the emphasis on technology and work-team communication, the Sixth Edition integrates real-world perspective and the 3Ps (Problem, Process, Product) writing model in the introduction of the Eduspace online learning tool, featuring writing tutorials and expanded Web-based resources.

Morrell Jr., President and CEO, The Nucon Group; Scott Roller, Internet Marketing Director, Texas Instruments; and Gary Davis, Vice President, Corporate Communications, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc., among others.

In each module, students take on the role of an employee of Urban Systems who has several tasks to accomplish as well as one final project to complete. Each of the work tasks reinforce chap
