INTRODUCTION Communication is the process of transferring information from a sender to a receiver with the use of a medium in which the communicated information is understood by both sender and receiver. It is a process that allows organisms to exchange information by several methods. Communication is like a double-acting hinge, swinging outward to release your own ideas and swinging inward to receive the worthy thoughts of others. – Stacey Huish A two-way process of creating, transmitting and interpreting ideas, facts and feelings. There must be a sender (source) who facilitates the communication and a receiver to receive that message; ...

...week in this course I was taught different techniques in how to communicate in business writing. I learned how to apply these techniques to different scenarios in a business career and for my future courses. Businesses have used technology as a form of communication for some time now. Techniques today have made communication a lot simpler than and just as effective as the original technique type of a face to face meeting. There may now be several technical types to communicate a business transaction or a client proposal, but the important key is to know how to communicate through a writing process. My most important lesson in this course was to understand how to recognize the audience you are to communicate to and to know the process it takes to write, present, or inform the client or a colleague. Planning, brainstorming, gathering information, organizing, and evaluating your writing are the first steps of the process I can use in my business career and in future courses. The next steps are getting feedback and being able to revise, edit, and do a final proof read. Using this process will allow me to create essays or a presentation that will serve as an effective way to communicate my thoughts on a subject. Business writing comes in various formats such as email and Power Point presentations. Understanding the appropriate email etiquette will benefit me in the work place. Writing emails to clients must always be professional but also staying kind and friendly helps...

...Critical Review of Corruption and the Watchdog Role of the News Media by Sheila Coronel Introduction In Corruption and the Watchdog Role of the News Media, Sheila Coronel presents the role of media as a watchdog to keep the government in check. Coronel also examines the actual situation of the “watchdogging” by the media including its vulnerabilities to certain factors such as globalization, deregulation, economic impact, culture and many more. She presents the scenario in a form of research in which she shares her arguments and analysis as a veteran investigative journalist. This paper will review Coronel’s research as well as her primary arguments including her policy recommendations, and will evaluate the quality of Coronel’s research, writing, and focus. Summary Coronel begins his paper by reviewing the general premise of media as a watchdog of the society in monitoring government and exposing its excesses. She presents evidences on the retraction of this role around the world thanks to “globalization, the fall of authoritarian and socialist regimes, and the deregulation of the media worldwide.” To ponder on the watchdog role of media, Coronel asks the following important questions: Is the press acting as watchdog always desirable? In countries where the media are hobbled by draconian state restrictions or driven largely by the imperatives of profit-obsessed markets, is such a role even possible? What enabling conditions make a watchdog press effective...

...Unit 27: Understanding Health and Safety in the Business Workplace Unit code: H/502/5458 QCF Level 3: BTEC National Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose The aim of this unit is to enable learners to develop knowledge of the legislation and regulations relating to health and safety in a business workplace in order to conduct an audit and carry out a risk assessment. Unit introduction It is important, when working in business, to ensure compliance with organisational procedures and legal requirements, as the consequences of non-compliance can have serious implications for employees and employers. It is important, therefore, for learners to appreciate that those working in business must understand the principal issues which affect the working environment, for all individuals and the organisations that employ them. This involves keeping up to date with information on the legal issues that affect safe working practices. Everyone at work plays an important part in ensuring health and safety and it is essential that key personnel are aware of their roles and responsibilities. Employers must take reasonable care to protect their employees, and others, from the risk of injury, disease or death, while employees must take care to protect themselves and others. Safe working conditions and the ‘welfare of employees’ can contribute to the success of an organisation. It is important that organisations take steps to prevent accidents...
