Assignment Question: - Why communication is so important?

INTRODUCTION

The word communication is derived from a Latin word meaning “to share.”
Communication can be defined as “purposefully and actively exchanging information
between two or more people to convey or receive the intended meanings through a
shared system of signs.
Communication is simply the act of transferring information from one place, person
or group to another. Every communication involves (at least) one sender, a message
9and a recipient. This may sound simple, but communication is actually a very
complex subject. The transmission of the message from sender to recipient can be
affected by a huge range of things. These include our emotions, the cultural
situation, the medium used to communicate, and even our location. The complexity
is why good communication skills are considered so desirable by employers around
the world: accurate, effective and unambiguous communication is extremely hard.
DISCUSSION POINTS

1. Communication promotes motivation by informing and clarifying the


employees about the task to be done, the manner they are performing the
task, and how to improve their performance if it is not up to the mark.
2. Communication is a source of information to the organizational members for
decision-making process as it helps identifying and assessing alternative
course of actions.
3. Communication also plays a crucial role in altering individual’s attitudes,
i.e., a well-informed individual will have better attitude than a less-informed
individual. Organizational magazines, journals, meetings and various other
forms of oral and written communication help in moulding employee’s
attitudes.
4. Communication also helps in socializing. In today’s life the only presence of
another individual foster’s communication. It is also said that one cannot
survive without communication.
5. As discussed earlier, communication also assists in controlling process. It
helps controlling organizational member’s behaviour in various ways. There
are various levels of hierarchy and certain principles and guidelines that
employees must follow in an organization. They must comply with
organizational policies, perform their job role efficiently and communicate any
work problem and grievance to their superiors. Thus, communication helps in
controlling function of management.
CONCLUSION

A mutual understanding can contribute to effective communication. Communication


is important to every aspect of life. Poor communication breakdown can cause
detrimental results that cannot be reversible especially in institutions that deal in
business matters which are client based. This would result into loss of clients that
took the institution several years to come up with.
