How does effective communication contribute to the success of directing?
Communication is the backbone of the directing process. It helps in the dissemination of instructions, feedback, and guidance. Without clear communication, employees may not understand their roles or the tasks assigned to them, leading to confusion and inefficiency. An effective communication system ensures that employees are well-informed about organizational policies, objectives, and expectations. Regular feedback allows for corrections and improvements, which contributes to enhanced employee performance and goal achievement. Barriers to communication, such as information overload or emotional blocks, should be minimized to maintain smooth and effective interactions​.
