Organizational Communication

We define organizational communication’ as the sending and receiving of messages among

interrelated individuals within a particular environment or setting to achieve individual and

common goals. Organizational communication is highly contextual and culturally dependent.

Individuals in organizations transmit messages through face-to face, written, and mediated

channels.

Organizational communication is important as it can greatly impact the operations of the business.

With clear communication, a business can run smoothly and can potentially find success. Creating

clear instructions for operational tasks of the business can help to increase efficiency. By

communicating the goals and tactics for achieving those goals thoroughly, the staff can be a more

cohesive unit and work towards the goals in an efficient manner. Having good communication is

especially important when there are changes within the company. By making sure all employees

are included within the changes, such as encouraging feedback, employees can feel that they are

part of the change and may impact the outcome of the organizational changes.

Organizational Culture

Organizational culture is generally understood as all of a company's beliefs, values and attitudes,

and how these influence the behavior of its employees.

In my research there are 4 types of Organizational Culture. These are:

(1) Adhocracy Culture – This culture allows individuals to share ideas and encourages the

company to take risks. I believe that in this culture, employees are highly motivated so that
 they can be able to express opinion, ideas, and creativity. Organizations give chances to

employees the opportunity to develop professionally.

(2) Clan Culture - A clan culture is people-focused on the sense that the company feels family-

like. This kind of company culture makes employees feel at home and share a close

relationship not only to co-employees but to all level inside the organization.

(3) Market Culture - Market culture prioritizes profitability. The goal of a market culture

company is to be the best in its industry. Though this culture has advantages to rise above,

the risk for employee burnout is very high and this can demotivate them to be meaningfully

engaged to their work.

(4) Hierarchy Culture: This is a usual corporate culture that emphasizes career paths and

provides clear managerial processes. All instruction and decisions inside the organization

must be through the chain of command.

Overall, healthy organizational communication and culture can make your employees happier,

more engaged, and work harder. This means that they will be less likely to miss work or quit

their jobs. If we want to save money in the long term and reduce turnover rates, then we need

to create a strong, healthy organizational culture.
