Communication in Organisation
COMMUNICATION IN AN ORGANIZATION
INTRODUCTION
Humans communicate all the time, and most of the time we do it as a matter of course, without thinking about it. We can define it in the following way:-
“Communication is one of the basic functions of management in any organization and its importance can hardly be overemphasized. It is a process of transmitting information, ideas, thoughts, opinions and plans between various parts of an organization.”
Communication is the process of conveying information from a sender to a receiver with the use of a medium in which the communicated information is understood the same way by both sender and receiver. Communication is important in an organization because it creates mutual understanding environment between the management and employees. Directly, it also helps in increasing the employee's productivity.
Communication is the process of exchanging information by the use of words, letters, symbols, or nonverbal behavior.
Successful communication depends not only on the appropriateness of the choice of channel and feedback but also on any barriers put between the sender and the receiver and feedback but also on any barriers put between the sender and receiver - these may be physical or even psychological.
A PRELUDE TO COMMUNICATION PROCESS
Communication can be thought of as a process or flow. Communication problems occur when there are deviations or blockages in that flow .In this section, we describe the process in terms of a communication model, consider how distortions can disrupt the process, and introduce the concept of communication apprehension as another potential disruption
A COMMUNICATION MODEL
Before communication can take place, a purpose, expressed as a message to be conveyed, is needed .It passes between a source (the sender) and a receiver. The message is encoded (converted to symbolic form) and is passed by way of some medium (channel) to the receiver, who retranslates (decodes) the message
