ReviewsVeterans of marketing and business communication help communications professionals think like business people in order to contribute to the company and further their career. They cover communications, business acumen, and the C-suite; finance and investor relations; human resources and employee engagement; corporate strategy, innovation, and legal; marketing, brand, and data analytics; social responsibility and transparency; and communication and corporate transformations. Among the topics are why business acumen matters more than ever, the partnership between corporate communications and investor relations, driving to the right place: aligning communications with business goals and objectives, how communicators can help corporations make a difference, and communications leadership that strong leaders expect., Building deeper competencies in business helps strategic communicators gain traction with the many silos of the typical corporate C-suite. Mastering Business for Strategic Communicators makes the case that these competencies empower communicators to counsel and serve as integrators of many strategic priorities beyond communication... The overall tone of the book is invitational to new practitioners, as well as to those who would seek more responsibility. Many practitioners discuss their mistakes, their influences, and their own learning through trial and error. In sum, these authors' views of the power of communication should both inspire and instruct.
