4.0 out of 5 stars
Helpful book in real business world,
By A Customer
This review is from: Business English: A Complete Guide to Developing an Effective Business Writing Style (Paperback)
As a non-native English speaker, I found this book to be very helpful in my day to day work. As I am working in a big MNC in Hong Kong, I have frequent interactions with people from different parts of the world, of which many of them are native English speaker. This book provides me a helpful guideline in writing day-to-day business memos, letters and email. My boss even said that she was really impressed about how I have improved in business writing. May be the only problem of this book is because of its length. However, I would have no doubt in recommendating this book to those who needs to write in English during their day to day job, especially those non-native speakers.
