Re: Module 1 DQ 2
When I first think about the statement, “there’s nothing like successfully tying communication to achieving results [as one way] to institutionalize communication behaviors”, I think about organizational culture. Organizational culture is the environment and norms that characterize an organization as well as the behaviors and social norms that exist within the individuals within the organization (Mercadal, 2018).
Many see organizational culture as the “personality” of the organization and like humans, each personality is unique. Culture change is a time consuming process that requires persistence, dedication, and focus. In order to effectively make a change in the right direction for an individual, it requires a team of the right individuals. These individuals are those that are competent in the use of communication to drive results (Wamble-King, 2009). Those right individuals are aware of the different forms of communication that can be used to aid in driving results. They are well versed in a variety of communication methods. Not everyone communicates the same way. People are different in the way that they retain or interpret the information they are receiving. Some can absorb information simply by listening to another’s ideas while others require visuals such as newsletters or power points. It’s all about understanding your organizational culture.
In order to build a strong organizational culture, it is important to work towards a common goal. By institutionalizing communication behaviors, this does not mean that each individual within the culture needs to be the same as the next. Individuals are unique and bring their own ideas to the table. When I think of institutionalizing communication behaviors, I think of the importance of shared beliefs and cross communication. Cross communication is vital to organizational culture. When there is a lack of this communication, there is isolation among the team members, resulting challenges that may be irreparable. They need to be able to work together as a team to truly implement a change. If they are not able to do so, there are no results. One person’s work may rely on another’s. It is important for team members to know one another, feel motivated, and empowered.
