Employee Communication

Interdepartmental communications can be a vital organizational need but often overlooked in the process of managing the individual needs of each department. Some departments require more direct interdepartmental communications and others far less; QA, engineering, sales may need to communicate more whereas marketing, production and customer services may need to communicate a little less. However, any organization that does not have appropriate lines of communication between departments is in danger of making costly mistakes and missing important opportunities. Innovation and problem mitigation and solving is often a result of input from an unlikely source who sees what insiders failed to see. Regardless of the size of your organization if you have employees in different departments interdepartmental communications arrangements should be on your agenda.
