1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Inefficient communication
constitutes a major problem to any organization. It goes a long way in
preventing such organization from achieving the set objectives.
Irrespective of the different perspective one may look at it, be it from
the angle of the employee or the employer, it is always believed that
inefficient communication is unfavourable towards the realization of the
organizational goals.
Some of the problems associated
with ineffective communication in a business organization using my case
study as an example are,
(1) lack of proper channels of
communication throughout which information is obtained. This explains
why there still exists situations were minor problems which could be
solved by simple dialogue between the workers and the management most
times lead into major problems which cause some set back in the company.
(2)
Secondly, the organization is not willing to carry its employees along,
through sharing of information on management decisions. This gave way
for workers to receive and give information from the grave vine rumours,
and rumour being unhealthy development brings about negative opinion
and also leads to unfavourable reaction to the organizational problems.
The business organizations I am researching on, being a manufacturing
and service company, often run out of stock of raw materials, this
explains why productions is not carried out as scheduled, no other
genuine reason could be given for this lack of raw materials but
inefficient communication which breeds negative development in an
organization. And as we all know disrupted production does not enhance
regular payment of workers salaries and motivation and when workers are
hungry, they go unhealthy about the organization who does not truly see
communication as vital aspect of communication gap is bound to suffer.
