This book is written for those training to enter or who are already in a vocational or technology career. It has been written because everyone in these fields agrees that these individuals will need more than just technical skills to get a job, succeed at that job, or be promoted. They will need to be able to speak and listen effectively. Instructors know this, supervisors know this, and employers know this. Yet, many entering or already in a vocational or technology field have received little direct instruction in oral communication.The ideas and suggestions in this book are supported by testimonials from successful vocational or technology graduates, supervisors, and employers. The book presents a brief background on the communication process and suggests the best ways to interact given the nature of that process. It can be read and studied alone, or better still, used as a supplement to an English / Communication or Job-Related Training course. It can be easily covered in its entirety, or excerpts can be used here and there during any phase of formal or self-training programs.Throughout all workers' lives, their abilities will be evaluated. Employers and supervisors will be asking routinely if a person can do a certain job, will do the job, and will fit in with others on the job. What one says and how it is said will enable them to best answer those questions. The spoken word will be a catalyst for nearly all that one may accomplish both in one's work life and personal life. Its mastery must not be taken for granted.
