Global
Collaborative Business Environments
In today’s interdependent
economy, effective global communication and collaboration are essential to the
achievement of lasting, organizational competitiveness and success. Undoubtedly,
written communication plays an important role in achieving business success. For
example, a global technology company (communicating almost entirely by email)
generates reports, manages projects and processes, and deploys customer service
documents in English that must be understood by people in multiple countries. A
medical device company, with a diverse web of research units and products, must
create a systematic communication approach when submitting regulatory reports.
Regardless of the industry or organizational type, gaps in document clarity,
quality and consistency can have costly results across the global business
environment.
