Based on the increasingly widespread use of English as a Medium of Instruction, this textbook is written in an original way and serves as a teaching manual that can be utilized not only for teaching English business and economic language and terminology for specialized/academic purposes but also in foreign-language undergraduate or postgraduate programs when teaching subjects related to Management, Finance, Organizational Behavior, Intercultural Communication, Negotiations, Professional Presentations, Translation, Creative Writing, etc.

The manual aims to develop written and oral communication skills through in-depth study of these subjects. It is structured in such a way that students can easily understand the content and (collaboratively) work on the activities that follow without feeling discouraged. The included material is designed to help them approach knowledge without being overwhelmed, while encouraging them to engage in productive discussions and inquiries on contemporary topics.

The author draws upon his many years of experience in teaching and instructing English at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as teaching Specialized Management Topics, while also possessing significant experience in translating and editing leading American scientific publications in the aforementioned fields.
