ORGanizational COMMunication is one field I never thought I'd end up enjoying. Well, I guess I was wrong.
As my path of life in La Salle's Orgcom flow chart moves farther to the right (if you are a LaSallian im pretty sure you know what i mean) , things started to become very interesting. As in..."Hmmmm...This is really interesting!". The various courses Orgcomm offer gave me an idea of how communication really works, a view on the system of communication, ideas about the importance of verbal and non verbal messages, and the best part --- a learning on how to decode manipulated messages. Organizational communication is a very versatile course. Its scope is very important in every organization. Why?
Simply because Organizational Communication graduates can :
1. identify internal and external organizational problems that causes
- profit loss
- bad image
- organizational image inconsistencies
- bad employee performance
- unsuccessful management/ leadership
- unsuccessful teamwork
- bad community relations
- organizational crisis
- lawsuits by employee on harassment (sexual, visual, verbal, etc.)
2. Provide companies suitable and feasible solutions
- change in internal system (re alignment of workforce/ functions)
- public relations plan/ event/ project
- website
- corporate social responsibilities
- events management
- corporate identity manual
- ad campaign
- crisis communication plans
- human resource development
- organizational development
- organizational video (training video, informational video)
- training programs
- photography
You see, our roles in society are very important. Most organizations do not notice it but there are more detailed and important things to be considered in every part of their system. Sometimes organizations tend to neglect the nitty-gritty aspects of their company which can cause great changes positively, or negatively. Communication happens all the time and it is our job to make sure that the message is delivered in every suitable and appropriate way.
We are very important creatures of this living planet, because we are trained to use effective communication as our tool in dealing with everything. We can make things happen.
