Workplace communication. Nearly all conflicts or problems in the workplace can be traced to communication breakdowns: misunderstandings, assumptions, vague speak, poor listening abilities, and the list goes on. In this issue, we cover several areas where effective communication is critical: giving and receiving feedback, communicating about layoffs and participating in face-to-face meetings. We discuss how communication is both a bottom-up and top-down function ("Management's Role in Workplace Communication") and detail some components of good communication ("Effectively Communicating in the Workplace").
Knowing that communication works best when it's a two-way street, please share with us your thoughts on this issue. We will post them in next month's issue (anonymously, if you prefer).
Sincerely,
