The basic approaches to analyze the definition “culture of business communication of future specialists of pharmacy area”

       Clarification of the nature of the definition "culture of business communication of future specialists of pharmacy area" needs analysis of the basic approaches to the interpretation of content of  determinations "culture of communication" and "culture of business communication", which involve an analysis of the determinations "communication" and "business communication".

       Multifaceted nature of communication is the subject of  scientific researches in the several areas: pedagogical, linguistic, psychological, philosophical, sociological.

        Considering the problem of pedagogical communication, A. Mudryk says it is a special kind of activity, the selection of which may be very appropriate to define the relationship between teacher and student [3, p. 56]. O. Leontiev believes that professional communication of  teacher with students in the classroom and outside (in the process of training and education) has some teaching functions and it is directed (if it is valuable and optimal) to create a favorable psychological climate, as well as other kind of psychological optimization of learning activities and relationships between teacher and student within the student group [1, c.35].

       Thus, pointed above authors see the purpose of teaching communication as a solving educational problems related with the dynamics of intercommunications of  men and qualitatively altered relationships are the results of communication. Humanistic nature of communication as a professional activity is determined that the subjects of this activity are recognized free personalities, admitted their intellectual and moral rights. At the same time, each of the subjects acquires new ideas, knowledge, intentions, i.e. it depends on their personal experience to interpret  received  training information.

       In a linguistic point of view, communication  is a symbolic (signs) interaction of men (author and recipient of  sign-message), representation that aims to unity and identity of signs: terms, concepts and so on. So, E. Vereshchagin, V. Costomarov argue that communication  is a process of establishing and maintaining a focused, direct or indirect contact between people through language.

        In a psychological point of view, interaction carried out in the form of communication is a condition of any activity of a human  that man with his goals, emotions, limited cognitive abilities, which is influenced by various external factors. B. Ananev writes that communication is a required component of work, education and all other kinds of activity that involve human interaction, it is a condition without which no true knowledge of them, forming their emotional response to this reality and based on this knowledge of emotional attitude and behavior in this reality.

        In a philosophical point of view, communication is exchange of activity, information,   experience,    skills,   abilities,    as   well   as    the   results  of  activity.

L. Buyeva believes that communication is individualized form of realization of  social relations, observable reality and specification of social relations, their personification, personal form. In a sociological point of view, communication is social and personal process of orientation, which realizes not only the personal relationships and settings on social norms. Sharing the views of eminent scientists A. Leontiev, A. Mudryk, we believe that communication is communicative activity of  subjects, who engage in this  activity as partners. Analysis of available sources shows considerable actuality of   problems of communication and business communication.

        To determine the nature of business communication of future specialists of pharmacy area we shall appeal to the views of these authors: A. Panfilova believes that business communication is a process of interaction between business partners, aimed on organization and optimization a particular type of purposeful activity. The subject of the communication is the activity (business) and partner of communication always appears as an individual, who is significant for another. Main task is productive collaboration, to try to  reconcile objectives, improving partnership relations [4, p.15]. A. Trotsko, I. Trubavina consider business communication as interaction between people to share information that may relate a person, the world, human activity. The tasks of business communication lies in the fact that: 1) recognize the intent and individuality of partner, 2) organize activity, 3) provide feedback (the results of this activity) [5].

       Ambiguity of views of scientists on the content and features of business communication led to the existence of different approaches to the interpretation of the nature of the definition "culture of business communication".  In particular, it is seen as part of general culture of a specialist, a leading indicator of the quality and effectiveness of its communication (S. Ryabushko); socially significant measure of development of communicative arts of expert (V.  Poltoratska); set of skills in the field of communication and interpersonal interaction  that promote mutual    understanding,   effective       solution of problems  of communication (V. Sokolova); a high level of formation of ability to communicate in the business world (A. Baeva, F. Kuzin);   basis   of     interpersonal,        organizational,     intercultural   interaction

(N. Dolgopolova); the degree of development of communication skills we can make interaction between subjects   oriented on effective implementation of production duties (N. Gorbunova).

        We believe that the foundations a culture of business communication integrate the principles of professional culture and business communication. Forms of business communication are oral: business talk, business meetings, business negotiations, public speeches, press conferences, debates, presentations, discussions, written: design business correspondence, and means of business communication - linguistic (language), paralinguistic (voice, range, tone), optic-kinetic (gestures, facial expressions, pantomime), extra linguistic (pause, laughter, rate of speech), space-time (distance, time, place, situation of communication), technical (telephone, telex, fax and internet facilities).

        We believe that the culture of business communication should be considered as part of the general culture, including its classification by type, kind, significance, determining its functions: human and creative, cognitive, regulatory, accumulative, value, communicative, compensatory, educative. Thus, the definition "culture of business communication" can be understood as multi structural, dynamic, systematic formation, which is an important component of general culture and simultaneously measure of  effectiveness of business communication, which is aimed  at organization and optimization of activity of the expert in the field of pharmacological profile.
