Jillian Phipps’s blog refers to ways to improving organizational communication in a company. one of them is using social media services like Facebook or Twitter. In our present era, most people using social media and spending most of their times on that. So, this is an easy way to employees connect with each other and foster their relationships because one of the important things in any organization is how they interact with each other and inform about their interests. Also, the organization can make specific groups to put the daily news for each department there to every employee also can discuss in this group. I think The important thing that we have to consider is that being active in social media and creating this group chats depends on the culture of the company. For example, if the company is based on team works and creativity methods so this is a great way to improve their communication.
Lots of organizations using open office concept to enhance the communication of employees and improve their group performance. In my view, this is a great way to boost the motivation of employees especially in group-base companies that need to have innovations and creative ideas but normally employees need enough private space to think individually as well and not distract from other people. That’s companies should consider their design as well to provide a situation for employees that is adequate from both dimensions. In some cases, using this motivation strategies distract employees and decrease their individual performance so companies should balance these two to get the highest potential of their employees. Therefore, I think to use these motivation and communication strategies we have to consider the culture and values of the company and the structure of the company to reach to the best outcomes.
