Am I Speaking Prose? Rejoinder to “Critical Language and Discourse Awareness in Management Education”

This essay claims too much and too little for Critical Language Discourse, an interesting subject, but in my view not necessary as a separate topic from Needed Communications Skills Education. Those skills are best learned in context, working on specific challenges with specific audiences where there are particular communications problems to be overcome, then discussed from multiple points of view, including numerous relevant theories and concepts. Frequent iterations between challenges tackled, what works under which circumstances, what does not, and so on, builds a deeper understanding of oral and written communications, without necessarily learning theoretical names for the one form of theory.
