Approaches To Teaching Organizational Communication, Ronald L. Applbaum Jan 1998

Approaches To Teaching Organizational Communication, Ronald L. Applbaum

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article discusses approaches to teaching organizational communication in departments of speech communication. This paper argues that the primary goal in most organizational communication courses at the undergraduate level is actually the development of communication competencies.
