QUESTION 1

COMMUNICATION IN THE ORGANISATION


1.1 An overview of what organisational communication is


Organisational communication is a discipline focused on the interaction between
individuals; it examines how organisational framework, types of messages,
communication pathways, and individual conduct intersect (Angelopulo and Barker
2013: 13). This field requires practical research that tackles existing issues within
organisations (Angelopulo and Barker 2013: 13). During the initial business
gathering mentioned earlier, participants posed inquiries, shared thoughts, and
endeavoured to establish a definition for organizational communication (Angelopulo
and Barker 2013: 13).
