    The Business Communication is an educational publication that has helped students, freelancers, and working professionals understand business communication concepts since 2013. It was founded by Masudur Rashid, and many of the early articles were co-written with Ornov Chowdhury Bappi.

    About the author

    Shek Md Masudur Rashid, founder and lead writer at The Business Communication

    Masudur Rashid (full name: Shek Md Masudur Rashid) founded The Business Communication in 2013 and is responsible for everything published on the site. He is a long-time business-communication educator and certified WordPress developer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, with more than a decade of hands-on experience writing instructional content for students and working professionals.

    His writing focuses on what learners actually need to use in classrooms and workplaces: clear definitions, real letter and memo samples, comparison tables that survive an exam, and practical drafting steps that survive a real boss reading them. He treats each article as something a reader will reference once and then again two years later, and updates posts whenever the conventions or examples need to catch up.

    Co-author

    Ornov Chowdhury Bappi co-wrote many of the site’s original articles on communication theory, business letters, and meetings when the site launched in 2013.

    Areas of expertise

    • Business letter writing (acknowledgement, complaint, claim, adjustment, recommendation, collection)
    • Memo, agenda, minutes and other workplace documents
    • Oral, written, vertical, horizontal and grapevine communication theory
    • Interview preparation, application drafting and resume writing
    • Mass communication, public relations and media studies

    Editorial standards

    Articles are written around the conventions taught in business programmes (BBA, MBA, and undergraduate courses) and practical workplace usage. In 2026 many older articles were revised with the help of AI writing tools, and not every revision was checked line by line before publishing. We are now reviewing each article by hand: statistics and sources that could not be verified have been removed, and every remaining source is linked so readers can check it.

    Each article shows its original publication date and the date it was last updated. When a post is revised, the “Updated” date changes; the published date does not.

    If you spot an error or have a suggestion, please email the editor through the contact page. Corrections are issued in the same article they appear in, with a note about what was changed.
