| Abstract: | This article looks at the types of research needed in business writing. Research in business is referred to as looking at documents, adding up the results of a questionnaire or combining replies to interviews. Libraries play a big role in efforts to locate documents related to business writing. Contributions to research in communication networks made by Arthur Cohen of the Case Institute are mentioned. Cohen has concluded that a given network fosters a certain pattern of communication. The author references three dissertations which deal with the problem of the leader in relation to communication. One of the papers discusses the link between verbal ability and accuracy in predicting the behavior of individuals in leaderless group discussions. |
