Courtland L. Bovée John V. Public Relations Chapter 16 , explaining how social media have upended the traditional practice of public relations Business in Action: An Ideal Text for Your Introduction to Business Course Business in Action is the ideal text for courses that aim to cover the full spectrum of contemporary business topics in the most efficient and successful manner possible. HIGH-EFFICIEnCY LEarnInG WItHOUt COMPrOMISES Business in Action offers instructors and students a much-needed alternative to texts that are either overstuffed and overwhelming or so skimpy that they compromise essential coverage.

With a full 20 chapters, including chapters dedicated to employee motivation, customer communication, financial markets, and banking, it has the same scope as other comprehensive texts while being up to 20 percent shorter. There is no filler and no fluff, and the examples were chosen carefully to illustrate important points, without overloading the text. The chapter-opening vignette introduces a company faced with a major strategic challenge and encourages students to imagine how they would address that challenge. Three critical thinking questions require students to apply the concepts covered in the text. With this approach, each learning objective segment is treated almost as a mini-chapter within the chapter, letting students pace their intake and memorization, rather than having to review an entire chapter at once.

The consistent six-part structure Preface also simplifies course planning and class time allocation for instructors, and it helps students organize their reading, review, and test preparation. VISUaL LEarnInG FOr a nEW GEnEratIOn OF StUDEntS Business in Action takes efficiency and student-friendly design to an entirely new level, with more than Exhibits That Teach. These unique diagrams, infographics, and other exhibits address the challenge of getting students to read long passages of text by presenting vital concepts visually. The emphasis throughout is on productive learning—on helping students minimize the time they spend reading while maximizing their learning outcome. This value-added approach to visuals is in sharp contrast to books that try to entertain with decorative photos, cartoons, or fractured page designs that disrupt the flow of reading and thereby force students to spend even more time reading.

Healthy connection between risk and reward Company Company makes a decision that involves some risk. Outcome If outcome is positive, company reaps the rewards. If outcome is negative, company suffers the consequences. Moral hazard: Link between risk and reward is broken Company Company makes a decision that involves some risk. If outcome is negative, someone else including other companies, consumers, or taxpayers suffers the consequences. You can subscribe to updates chapter by chapter, so you get only the material that applies to your current chapter. Fourteen carefully selected questions help you review infor- mation, analyze implications, and apply concepts. Highlighted questions involve ethical considerations and concept integration from other chapters. Discovering Career Opportunities tasks give students a chance to explore career resources on campus, observe professionals at their jobs, interview businesspeople, and perform self-evaluations to assess their own career skills and interests.

Improving Your Tech Insights tasks students to research and summarize an important technical development and explain its business implications; this feature introduces them to such revolutionary developments as nanotechnology, location and tracking technologies, and assistive technologies for people with disabilities. Building Your Team Skills teaches important team skills, such as brainstorming, collaborative decision making, developing a consensus, debating, role playing, and resolving conflict. Developing Your Research Skills familiarizes students with a wide variety of business reference materials and offers practice in developing research skills.
