So essentially upward communication is where information or massages flow from the bottom to the top of the organizational structure .Advantages:-1.Feedback, which managers obtain from the employees and that by hand could help improve the company’s development.2.
Mutual trust, as trust brings employees and superiors together and the more their trust grows relations between them get stronger. Disadvantages:-1)Non cooperative attitude, which damages the willingness of staff members to perform upward communication.2)Distortion is possible, as in the case of upward communication the information could be distorted or deliberately tampered with.
Downward communication Downward communication happens due to a flow of information and messages down by the organization’s formal chain of command, in simpler terms information starts at the upper parts of the organizational structure and descends down to the bottom levels of the organizational structure. Advantages 1.Organizational discipline, as members compliance is much easier to keep it up and this help keep everything organized.2.Efficiency, as information and commands come straight from the sources in control that are able to control activities from the top of the organization. Disadvantages1)Slow feedback, as it may take time for massages to go down from the top of the organization to the lower parts ,which could have a negative impact on the organization efficiency.2)Demoralization,as given the time it takes and the chance the information passed down may be altered it could have a negative impact on morale in the organization.
Horizontal communication:-It’s a type of communication that’s between departments or employees of the same level in an organization and is usually the most common form of communication and its extremely important for functioning smoothly in every organization as it encourages understanding and coordination between various departments. Advantages:-1.It creates a friendly work environment in the work place which leads to a more effective organizational system.2.It increases response and ensures quick feed back between employees which increases workplace efficiency. Disadvantages:-1)May pave way for gossip, rumors and even false information which could cause conflict between staff members.
2)It could only be effective if there is proper communication and coordination from the departments heads and directors. Task 3 The Four types of Nonverbal Communication And how it may cause intercultural conflict.Types of Non Verbal communication1.Facial expressions, expressions such as frowning in the case of anger and smiling in the case of happiness and so on.2.
Gestures, which are basically certain movements that are also used to communicate with others and is usually used with verbal communication to add to it’s weight.3.Body language and postures, are usually expressed by the way your body is situated, for an instance, crossed hands give off the idea or the impression that you are on the defensive or loose shoulders shows how tired or bored you are.4.
Tone of speech, which refers to the way you sound when you speak, things such as pitch, loudness and it’s not to be mixed with the language being used .With all non verbal communication there’s always a chance of a misunderstanding which in some cases could go really negatively and cause a lot and cause a lot of chaos, for an instance in the case of gestures some hand gestures may be offensive for one group of people but completely normal and acceptable for another group of people for example the gesture of pointing with a finger is very common in some parts of the world, but in many countries that is seen as extremely disrespectful even though in other countries it’s normal and this could cause problems especially in the case of if someone from the other part of the world visits one of these countries which would consider it offensive or disrespectful, which would lead to an intercultural conflict.
