Organizational Communication

In business, corporations must adapt and evolve—at rapid speed—if they expect to survive. We can all be sure that our competitors eventually will come to market with a product or technology that changes the basis of competition. If we cannot change and adapt, we will not survive. Central to innovation and strength within an organization is effective communication at all levels and from every direction.
Effective organizations use communication to create the tradition of innovation, being careful to not squelch invention and pioneering ideas. Management needs to communicate broad direction and vision to the labs, to the departments, to the teams who execute that vision. In turn, these areas need to communicate opportunities to management. And innovators in every area of the company need to communicate with each other.
Sometimes organizations lack efficient communication channels—leadership does not reveal vision and information vital for employees to be productive and effective. Sometimes too many “chiefs” communicate variations of directions that create confusion and disengagement. WCW helps companies develop communication that results in clarity and effectiveness and eliminates confusion. Assessments are crafted to understand the chain of messaging from the executives to directors to managers to department teams and individuals. The assessment results are utilized to develop and implement clear channels of effective organizational communication.
