*SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2019 BAAL BOOK PRIZE* Culture, Discourse, and
the Workplace brings new theoretical and methodological insights to
the complex relationship between language, culture, and identity in
professional settings. Examining the politics of language use at
work via a critical sociolinguistic approach, this book: Utilises
three case studies from institutional and business contexts to
provide a unique illustration of participants' roles and ways of
negotiating membership within the business meeting; Questions
essentialist meanings of culture and the ways in which they
constitute a powerful resource for employees to perpetuate or
challenge the status quo in their professional setting; Includes a
core section on methodology for the workplace discourse researcher
as well as a section dedicated to FAQs and a worked example on data
analysis; Provides future directions for workplace sociolinguistics
as a field and makes a case for holistic research and
multidisciplinary enquiry. Culture, Discourse, and the Workplace
constitutes a key resource for students and teachers of
intercultural communication and ESP and will also be of significant
interest to researchers in the fields of workplace studies and
business interaction.
