Communication Barriers

Communication barriers can have a large impact on a company’s employees and customers. Without communication there will not be efficiency within companies. For example, deadlines won’t be met, ideas won’t grow, and companies will not evolve. Everything would be at a stand still. Barriers such as Different languages, a sudden change in a company’s structure or advertisers business creates havoc. As an example currently within my company Idearc Media our CEO Kathy Harless had resigned as CEO without prior notice soon after Jack Muelley was appointed CEO and within a week of him accepting the position he also had resigned as CEO. The communication sent to employees was for unseen health reasons. This type of activity has made employees nervous, because communication is lost and employees are either making their own assumptions on where the companies headed or employees are slacking from their job duties because of uncertain change.
