Abstract

IBEC (Guideline 27) emphasize that effective communication and the sharing of particular information between management and employees is a fundamental prerequisite in organisational strategy to positively involve employees in the organisation in which they are employed. The primary management aim when formulating a communication policy or strategy should be to encourage employees to connect with the organisation as a whole. IBEC further emphasise the significance of sufficient comprehension of the various structures and processes that are involved in communicatiion within an organisation.
Communication can be defined as the act of imparting news or information. In the context of a work environement this may have many pretexts. Communication may be on an informal basis, with much of it left to chance and the 'grapevine' being the most recurrent medium, Nevertheless, many organisations recognise that a formal communication structure is of benefit and have drawn up policies in that regard.
Some policies can be very wide-ranging with team briefing, quality circles and problem solving groups inplace. Other companies, while maybe not as sophisticated, may have simple structures, but structures that are methodical and instructive. The key factor is that management talks to the workers and, in doing so, instils authority and responsibility within the workforce.
