In my work as a teacher of English as a foreign language in a business enviroment, I found this book to be very helpful. It is not a traditional teaching book. It is fantastic if you want new ideas and role-play activities.

Brilliant and useful resource which I use all the time.
Chapters include survival English - numbers, alphabet, intros; Hypothesising, taking orders, telephoning, querying information - plus loads more that someone doing business needs to do in English every day.
I particularly love the Business Trip Game where you have to roleplay situations while travelling, and there are 'hazards' for when things go wrong. I also love the section on Ethics which has produced some great discussions.
I'd thoroughly recommend it. Great to dip into and photocopy...

If you are serious about helping non-native business people - you will need this one.
This book is dated and in certain areas you must be careful to point out the changes from 1989 - especially with telephone numbers and postcodes. But it does open up discussion anyway and this is good. I have been using it for several years and would not be without it. If you have a business background it will let you "open up" some units and extend them very well.
I would love to see the authors freshen this publication up. Maybe to include a CD with some extra exercises.
