Bovee & Thill—Thought-Leaders and the #1 Authors in the Field

Nov. 22, 2010 - PRLog -- College textbooks authors Courtland Bovee and John Thill are the thought-leaders and the #1 authors in the field of business communication and business writing. They write the three leading business communication textbooks: Business Communication Today, Excellence in Business Communication, and Business Communication Essentials, published by Pearson Prentice Hall. Their texts are recognized not only for their superior coverage of the traditional areas of business communication, but also for their coverage of technology and social media.

Bovee and Thill recently started writing a blog (http://boveeandthillbusinesscommunicationblog.com), the first authors in the business communication field to do so. They share instructional insights, offer advice on incorporating technology and social media into the course, and provide compelling examples of good and bad business communication.

In addition to their blog, Bovee and Thill have also created Business Communication Headline News (http://businesscommunicationheadlinenews.com), recently voted the Number 1 business communication site on the web that  helps users stay on top of hot topics, important trends, and new technologies. Instructors also use it to update their lecture notes and for research.

Bovee and Thill have also established “Teaching Business Communication” groups on Facebook and LinkedIn where instructors can share opinions about topics and issues, ask peers questions, and offer best practices for instruction. More than 1,500 business communication and business writing instructors belong to one of these groups. Links to each of these groups can be found on the authors' blog listed in the second paragraph above.

Real-Time Updates (http://real-timeupdates.com) is another innovation of Bovee and Thill. This site keeps users current with chapter-by-chapter updates, every weekday, to each Bovee and Thill textbook.

Web Search (http://businesscommunicationblog.com/websearch -- copy and paste this URL into your browser) by Bovee and Thill is a new online tool that provides single-point access to more than 334 search engines.

Bovee and Thill are also active in helping America’s youth. They recently received citations from the Governor of Massachusetts for their dedicated service to Boston area youth. Last year, they received a Community Leadership Award from the Los Angeles Dodgers and the City of Los Angeles. More information can be found on their blog about their efforts to help communities.
