Sage Publications recently published the sixth edition of his best-selling book, Communicating for Managerial Effectiveness 6e. He co-authored two books with Robert J.

He has contributed chapters to numerous works including: Handbook of Communication Audits for Organisations, Communication Audits, and the International Encyclopedia of Organizational Communication.  He also is on the editorial board of many professional journals.

Phil has been a guest speaker at the U.S. Army War College where they use his books in their Strategic Leadership class. In addition to many guest-speaking opportunities in the U.S., he has also been invited to speak internationally at places such as The University of Pisa, The University of Aberdeen, The University of Ulster, as well as to numerous multi-national businesses and professional organizations. 

 

His students have heard him ask, "So what?" so often that they started calling him “Dr. So What.” Subsequently, he developed a related website (www.drsowhat.com) that highlights his passionate commitment to critical thinking and thoughtful inquiry. 

Review

This text us a treasure trove for us in and out of the classroom. Author: Steven Ralston Published On: 2012-07-30

This book is one of the few which is a ′must read′ in the field of management communication. Phil Clampitt combines a deep understanding of the research with an unparalleled sensitivity to the needs of practitioners. He has produced a text which is stimulating, fun to read and which transforms the way in which we think about communication in organizations. Wise executives will study its pages in order to steal ideas about best practice from one of the best in the business. The winners will be the organizations they work for. The losers will be the competition. Author: Dennis Tourish Published On: 2012-07-30
