Book Description

Discourse Community for Future Business Leaders is meant to help improve student learning outcomes in writing for business students across post-secondary institutions by exposing them to discourse community, and the importance of understanding lexis and its use in effective business communication. It is an interactive tool for connecting discourse to collegiate writing, that can be used in the classroom and beyond, and can greatly improve student outcomes through this self-directed study.

This text lends itself to improved business expository writing (succinct sentence structure, compelling thesis statements, persuasive arguments, passive vs. active voice, appropriate lexis, and jargon) and is designed as a supplemental OER for business students in composition and research courses. It fills a void in the high-need area of business composition that will increase writing achievement for collegiate business students.
