Märksõnad:
Highlights successful communication practices at Dell, General Electric, Microsoft, and Monsanto.

Through case studies of communication best practices at Dell, General Electric, Microsoft, and Monsanto, this book provides specific and powerful theories for leadership, marketing, and stockholder communication. Best practice limitations are also revealed in the cases of IBM, the Bumper Works, and Asea Brown and Boveri, where organizational learning, a firm's timeline, and corporate culture made implementation difficult. Taken collectively, these case studies suggest several ways in which benchmarking can become an important research methodology and theorist tool for understanding excellence in organizational practice.

Arvustused

"The book's greatest strength is its focus on how some of the best corporations communicate. Such an approach is a fruitful way to link theory and practice in the field of organizational communication, a field of study that desperately needs such bridges between theory and practice." Branislav Kovacic, editor of Emerging Theories of Human Communication

"Benchmarking communication is not done very well in our field and this book will make a truly original contribution to the area of organizational communication." Marshall Scott Poole, coeditor of Perspectives on Organizational Communication: Finding Common Ground

"This is an important book that offers concrete evidence of the centrality of communication in business practice and then provides insightful analysis of communication practices." Anne Maydan Nicotera, editor of Conflict and Organizations: Communicative Processes
