Human Resources: Didn’t you get the memo? How Great Communication Practices Impact the Workplace

As we all know, communication is essential for all organizations. Unfortunately, many organizations struggle to provide proper communication to their employees. Firms that communicate effectively are approximately four times more likely to have high levels of employee engagement than organizations that fall short of effective communications.

In this informative and cohesive session, Karen Stene will discuss communication principles and where current managers are falling short on those items. Stene shares communication best practices of high-performance organizations and how management can increase their communication skills with simple, proven strategies. Discover ways you can incorporate feedback into your organization’s culture and learn how other organizations saw a direct impact on their bottom-line by implementing these strategies.

Organizations with high communication levels follow these three essential objectives:

Communicate openly and frequently with their employees.
Actively listen and take action to that feedback.
Continually ask for feedback from their employees.

In the words of Jim Rohn: “If you just communicate you can get by. But if you skillfully communicate, you can work miracles.”

Educational Goal(s):

Identify the three components/directions of organizational communication.
Understand the current levels of management communication effectiveness.
Identify and describe successful employee communication strategies.
Learn about the linkage between overall job satisfaction and communication practices.

Stene utilizes an examples-based learning method in which she shares real-life situations from clients she has worked with to bring about positive change in their organizations. Stene also solicits input from participants by asking for specific business problems they may face and provides take-away activities for participants to bring back to their organizations.
