Managing external and internal communication is vital for an organization. the organization can view communication as an integrated concept and find areas for improvement within the organization. When developing an effective communication strategy, HR professionals need to demonstrate the connection between business problems and employee contributions on all levels.

Tie-in to Manager’s work with HR

As a manager, working with HR would be critical for the overall success of finding the right communication vehicle. From past experiences, using survey monkey is an effective way to send out to the team in getting feedback from the team on what is working and what should be worked on to better improve the flow of work. Surveys can be in the form of multiple choice or free form. With collaboration with HR, the right communication audit shape the communications. When results are all in, as a manger working with HR is very important to analyze the results and what kind of change can be performed. For example, if everyone on the team mentions increase of pay is what they would like to see to better be happy in the workplace, then as a manager that is a conversation to have with HR if it is within the budget to increase everyone’s pay and how will that happen if approved. The communication through the survey help the manager identify what percentage of the team is not happy and what is something they would like to see. Without HR, it is hard to make the change happen. The proper communication gets the right message out of the door and on the way to bigger and better outcomes.
