Discuss

Companies with strong cultures have a strong flow of communication that moves in every direction (1):

• Downward: communication flows from top management down to employees.
• Upward: communication flows from employees up to management.
• Lateral: communication flows between employees at the same level.
• Diagonal: communication flows across different work areas or organizational levels.

For this discussion:

• Use at least one example from the list to discuss how communication flows in a department in your current organization or a previous one.
• Explain how the flow of communication affects organizational culture.

Be sure to respond to at least one of your classmates’ posts.
