Mind Matters offers what other “business English” texts don’t—real “people issues” for students to read, write, and talk about. The focus is on workplace psychology—the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that affect, for better or worse, productivity and bottom line. Mind Matters is a “self-help” guide to improving working life. It features such topics as getting along with robot colleagues, overcoming gender discrimination, handling workplace “troublemakers,” and avoiding being an office pest. With pertinent quotes and practical advice from business “gurus” and practicing psychologists, Mind Matters develops the people and language skills students need to enter and succeed in today’s changing world of business.
