Defining business: the most up-to-date global Business English dictionary

In a dynamic business environment, it is essential that managers keep up to date with the latest business terms and jargon.

The Dictionary provides clear definitions to a significant number of international business and management terms, abbreviations, and acronyms. It has been compiled by an international team of expert researchers and business information specialists, led by the Chartered Management Institute in Europe.

Special features:

• World Business English terms are included to reflect the globalisation of the business world
• Abbreviations, acronyms, and their expansions are shown in full and cross-referred for ease of use
• Mini-essays to explain more complex concepts and help you get to grips with ideas quickly
• Biographical entries to detail the lives and careers of key business thinkers and learners
• Extensive listings of international stock exchanges and trade organisations
• Business slang from around the world - some humorous, some serious, some baffling. If English is not your first language, these entries will help you find a level playing field, avoid a seagull manager, and make sure you avoid being implicated in blamestorming at work.

The Dictionary of Business and Management is an extract of BUSINESS: The Ultimate Resource.
