Organization Communication

BCO323 ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION

Please find below written instructions for your Mid - Term Assignment.

1. Please start with a brief introduction.

Part A. Please critically compare and contrast empathic and critical listening. I would

like you to use examples from your personal experience or research to support your

arguments.

Please design a set of guidelines for evaluating speaker’s message but also note

when it would be fitting to withhold judgment. Please make sure that your suggested

guidelines are well structured and justified.

Please give examples of four types of nonverbal behaviour and summarize the

importance of each in a specific organization or career field. Please make sure that

you demonstrate the significance of non-verbal behaviour by providing examples

from a specific organization or field that you are familiar with or you do have

personal experience.

Part B. Please explain why language is often a cause of miscommunication across

cultures. Please refer to our Webinar 3 and the issues discussed during our webinar.

Think of the diverse internal business environments

What can international managers do to minimize communication problems that stem

from language difference? Please provide examples of strategies to overcome

common barriers to effective communication in the contemporary organisational

context. Here you will need to act as a consultant and suggest ways for international

managers to deal with communication issues that stem from language difference.

Reflect on your own experience when possible. Do not forget to mention the

contemporary organisational context. How the current pandemic and online work

affected communication?

2. Please use a brief conclusion. It will add value to your assignment.

3. The word limit is 2000.

4. Please do not forget to add your bibliographical references. I will suggest that you

need in text citations to enhance the quality of your work.

As always please let me know if you need any further information

Please send me a draft of you work if you wish before your final submission. I will be

happy to provide you with my feedback.

Good luck with your Mid Term Assignment!
