CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Communication is an important element in Human society in particular and
living things in general. Society’s survival and growth demand among other things
in a system of communication. According to Albert Silversteined (1974),
communication is that process that has allowed man to survive in his current form
despite his being singularly unsuited to survive in nay particular environment.
In the words of Schramm (1971), “communication is the great relating tool. It
relates individuals to each other making it possible for groups to function and for
societies to live together harmoniously.”
Communication can be defined as the process or the act of exchanging
information between one person and other persons. It is also the process of making
information available to others. The process of communication is the process by
which messages are formulated or amended and transmitted from the source or
communication through a channel or medium to a receiver or an audience.
Communication can be a tricky concept to master within an organization,
particularly one with multiple issues. When all parts of your organization
communicate smoothly, it can improve workflow and overall productivity. By
making an effort to improve your communication process, you can build a stronger
company that will have staying power in the market.
Clear open communication can create a sense of transparency in your
organization, which builds trust between the levels of the employees, as keeping
v
employees in the dark can results in resentments, tension and a feeling of low job
security. Strong communication can help them feel valued and trusted. Open
communication can reduce feelings of uncertainty and cluelessness about the state of
the company, which makes for a more-positive work environment and staff who feel
secure and safe.
Communication is also, essential to building relationship between staff
members and between levels of employees both on a professional and social level. In
an organization, one can only imagine what would happen if communication does
not exist. Employees would not be able to express their ideas; as a result staff(s) will
combine experience in coming up with innovative solutions. Communication will
prevent employees from feeling isolated, build teamwork and creates a more
collegial atmosphere in the office.
When relationships are strong, employees are better able to trust one another
and work together more effectively. The study will therefore examine the
contributions of effective communication for enhancing the organizational
performance of Nigeria breweries 9th mile corner, Enugu.
