It examines how culture, networks, ethics, new technology, information management, individual communication skill sets, and power are relevant to organizational communication and organizational communicators. The NEW fourth edition of Organizational Communication engages readers through:



introductory cases at the beginning of each chapter that act as a starting point for lectures or discussions about that chapter's content.
Questions of Ethics vignettes that analyze an ethical consideration segment that relates to the chapter's content.
interviews with different practitioners who comment on aspects of organizational communication. These segments intend to complement the theories and perspectives of scholars found in the text.
