Choice Review
Argenti (Dartmouth) and Forman (UCLA) offer practical wisdom for leaders who want to improve corporate communication. Both authors are highly respected for their expertise in this area and are academics of considerable reputation. Citing numerous problematic cases, from crises such as Hooker Chemical's Love Canal to the internal communication reforms at Navistar, they weave a focused approach for dealing with the complexities of various issues. Beginning by carefully defining corporate communications and describing its history, they show the reader how the process works and discuss a range of topics, e.g., issues of image and reputation, corporate advertising, internal communication, investor relations, community outreach, old and new media strategies, and communication management of crises. The book is extremely well written and indexed, and has endnotes by chapter useful for those desiring additional information. ^BSumming Up: Recommended.
