Teaching communication to business and management students: a view from the United Kingdom
journal contribution
posted on 2009-04-07, 12:42 authored by Laurie Cohen, Gill Musson, Susanne TietzeOur academic backgrounds in the fields of communication studies,
literary studies, and linguistics equipped us with concepts and
theories not normally found in management education. When we
came to business and management teaching, we all found that
although our insights from these fields were highly relevant (even
necessary) and certainly applicable, they were mostly absent from
existing teaching programs. Notably though, we found this not to
be the case in organizational research. Like many other fields of
study, from literature to geography, organization studies have
undergone what has been called a “linguistic turn.” In this article,
we argue that it is time for management teaching to embrace this
approach. In our view, through adopting a semiotic framework, we
can facilitate that access in an educational context
