Communication Essential & Significant for An Organizational Setting Analysis

Page Requirement:

5-6 pages, plus an Appendix sample recommendation communication, 12 point font, double-spaced

analyze the communication strategy issue Richard Hilton is facing in his department and with his team. Through investigating this case, a recommend should incorporate understanding of the organization’s culture, communication networks, and best practices for effective team meetings.

Your analysis and recommendations should consider the following questions:

Analysis:

• Based on the information provided within the case 8.1, what are the organization’s practices and values influence the organization’s culture?
• As described in the case 8.1, how are team members communicating if there is a problem? What does the current action tell us about the communication networks and effectiveness of team meetings?
• Consider the needs should the team meetings be virtual and include team members who are remote.

Recommendations for communication strategy:

• In order (first, second, third), who are the target audiences and what messages will you deliver to each of them?
• Why will you deliver them in that order?
• How you will deliver them?

You must apply what you’ve learned about culture, communication networks, and meeting management as you construct your analysis of the case situation and develop recommendations to support Richard Hilton in next steps.

You must use the APA style of citation. You must include a minimum of three direct references from course readings (i.e. Zaremba textbook, assigned articles) used in your analysis, although you will likely use more. You must also include a sample communication in your final section and a references page at the end of the essay.

You must use a thesis statement to guide your essay. You must also use the provided rhetorical form to structure the essay. Guidelines on both are found below.

HOW: Gather your evidence in order to support your thesis.
