Active / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA013674 |

Abstract:

Previous research suggests that communication and performance in organizations are intertwined. This study examines the relationship of individual communication in formal organizations to both objective and perceptual assessments of performance. Results confirm the link between a number of facets of organizational communication and performance. Both the quantity and quality of information appear to be important correlates of individual performance across a variety of tasks and functions. Author
