While personal variables like age, education and gender are often thought to contribute to a person’s distinctive speech pattern, corporate environments often develop its own way of communication which include larger scale variables like the economy and organisational traditions.

Communication and Language Analysis in the Corporate World provides insight into the verbiage of the corporate world and the influence of this environment for a person’s speech pattern, language and terminology. This book will provide a guide for language researchers and business leaders alike so that they may find a way to communicate with everyone - customers, colleagues and CEOs - effectively.
