Abstract:

To date, communication research in accounting has largely focused on the
competencies that define what constitutes ‘effective communication’. Highly
perception-based, skills-focused and Global North-centric, existing research
tends to echo the skills deficit discourse which overemphasizes the role of
the higher education system in developing students’ work-relevant
communication skills. This book investigates dominant views about
communication and interrogates what shapes these views in the accounting field
from a Global South perspective, exploring the idea of ‘good communication’ in
the globalized accounting field. Taking the occupational stereotype of shy
employees who are good with numbers but bad with words as its starting point,
this book examines language and communication practices and ideologies in
accounting education and work in the Philippines. As an emerging global leader
in offshore accounting, the Philippines is an ideal context for an exploration
of multilingual, multimodal and transnational workplace communication.
