NATURE AND DEFINITIONS OF BUSINESS COMMUNICATION
Lubomir Stoykov, Ph.D.

IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION

Nowadays it is difficult to come across a job advertisement or a vacancy contest notice, which would not mention eligibility criteria such as “communicativeness” or “communicative skills.” Concepts such as “organizational communication,” “corporate communication” or “business communication” long ago became key terms for management, entrepreneurship and human resources. They are even considered much more important in comparison to, for example, good education and qualification, leadership skills or the ability to take risks.

Why is it so?

Is communicativeness of such big importance to business, or the life of organizations? What is meant by “business communication”? What are its major functions and types? What is the characteristic of communicative skills? Is there a connection between management power and staff motivation on the one hand and business communication on the other, and what is this connection? What are the most common barriers and obstacles to contemporary business communication?
