Hello all,
I have always found that poor communication can make or break a show. I am looking for some input on how formal communication plays a role in our industry. If you have time to help me out, please answer some or all of the following questions. Any input you may have would be helpful.
-What communication activities are included in your job responsibilities? (Attending meetings, writing reports, presenting information, promoting the company’s products/services and image, explaining and clarifying management procedures, coordinating the work of various employees/departments, and evaluating employees).
-How much of the work day is spent on communication?
-Which communication activities take up the most time?
-What strategies do you use when you have to deliver bad news – to other employees? to customers?
-Has your company/business done anything to improve communication – in the workplace? with clientele?
-Describe the worst communication breakdown and how it was handled.
*Please note that this is for a class and if you choose to help me out your responses may be used in a short in-class presentation. While this is a class assignment I see the value in having an open discussion on these forums about how this industry communicates. I apologize is this post is deemed an inappropriate use of these forums.
Thank you,
Sean Hayes
