Worldviews habitual ways of seeing the world that reflect our inclinations and experiences


Organizational Communications the interaction required to direct a group toward a shared goal


Organizational Communication is how: 1. People function within organizations (Ex: Faculty- teach, research and service)
2. Organizations interact with one another (Ex: ECU works with state government,
UNC system, Physicians East)
3. Organizations influence the public and government (Ex: ECU doing renovation
causing issues in town)
4. People influence organizations themselves (ex: demand organizational change;
shift purchasing and investment commitments; encourage movement to a locale.)
(Ex: Org change at ECU- chancellor wants to make engineering bigger at ECU)
5. How organizations, individuals, and society (re)create social, moral, and cultural
priorities. (Ex: ECU being a party school, it is not written here it is just a belief)


Information Economy is capitalist (in most states) but revenue generation is largely through abstract
products. Information (investment, intellectual property, research, media, and
entertainment, etc.) drives monetary exchanges. Consequently, market success or
failure is dependent on who has the information.
-- Ex: Cuck Conuts radio commercial about a new donut

During industrialization... 1. most Western economies were expanding and large corporations (publicly
traded and family owned) were able to grow or remain stable. Consequently
employees enjoyed benefits:
- Secure work (and loyalty from organizations)
- Opportunities for advancements
- With the introduction of unions: improved benefits


2. Corporations themselves enjoyed
- Loyal workers that identified with the organizations
- "cheap" labor (early models exploited workers)


How much a CEO makes whatever you make working, double it and multiply it by a thousand


Three main types of changes that must be understood 1. globalization
and appreciated 2. communication technology
3. changes in the meaning and structure of work itself

Today work environment differs from the past in several 1. It is less stable- jobs and organizations are not secure. This is a function of
ways: markets and resources and competition
2. It is integrated- with governments and other organizations. Most work is not
"isolated."
3. Technology- has changed what constitutes work and how we conduct it. It has
profoundly affected communication.
4. Multiculturalism- work environments encompass many cultures
5. Translocation- work environments cross boundaries and locations. Much work is
now performed by people who have never met face to face.


Changes in the world of work have led to changes in the 1. Power bases are more mobile (ex: •working for motor sellers, government taxes
"social contract" people live by gasoline and taxes batteries. Boosts price of cars affects your job)
2. Priorities (layoffs, takeovers, buyouts,, money is more primary than loyalty for
the organization, no longer expect/reward long term employment)- HOWEVER--
Family is more recognized and important to organizations, Success is shifting in
definition (happiness vs. $$$), organizations are more willing/obligated to
accommodate personal needs)
3. Work also has a different meaning for workers (seen as an opportunity for
fulfillment, source of income, and livelihood)
4. begs the question, "Who can afford to prioritize?" (some cant afford to pursue
priorities)
