Notes

【Course Objectives】

Candlin and Crichton (2011), in expressing how language for specific purposes (LSP) is best perceived as multiple relationships, refer to Georges Braque’s (Jakobson, 1962, p. 632) famous saying, “I do not believe in things. I believe only in their relationship.” In this course, the participants explore the influence of language and culture (defined broadly and in view of Piller, 2007) on professional communication. The focus of the course is primarily on four themes in Schnurr’s (2013) volume on professional communication in action: politeness, identities, gender, and leadership. Each of these themes is considered from various perspectives such as culture, language, and ethics. The course helps to increase the participants’ awareness of the influence of language and culture in workplace settings.

【Course Contents】

The participants work in teams to make presentations about the intersection of 1) language, 2) culture, 3) the workplace and 4) one other theme: politeness, identity, gender, or leadership. The presentations contain comparative examples of professional communication in Japan (and/or in other countries), and the participants discuss how and to what extent the examples are related to language and/or culture in the workplace. The professional communication examples are also viewed from social power interests, positions and alignments, and sociocultural or historical or cultural patterns expressed (Scollon & Scollon, 2004). For the final paper, the participants conduct interviews with leaders to obtain workplace related success stories focused on communication. In the final paper, the participants analyze the accounts of the leaders from the perspectives of language, culture, the workplace, and the other four themes. Throughout the course, the participants evaluate the performances of others.
