integration, with the development of an efficient, cost effective and technologically
advanced communications infrastructure . With the economies of most countries becoming
increasingly sophisticated and knowledge-intensive, there is a greater need for the

6. Introduction
Business communication is the sharing of information between people within an
organization that is performed for the commercial benefit of the organization. It can also be
defined as relaying of information within a business by its people.Business communication
(or simply "communication", in a business context) encompasses topics such as
marketing, brand management, customer relations, consumer behavior, advertising ,public
relations, corporate communication, community engagement, reputation
management, interpersonal communication, employee engagement, and event
management. It is closely related to the fields of professional communication and technical
communication.Media channels for business communication include the Internet, print
media, radio, television, ambient media, and word of mouth.Business communication can
also refer to internal communication that takes place within the organization.Business
communication is a common topic included in the curricula of Undergraduate and Master
programs of many colleges and universities.
Business Communication is goal oriented. The rules, regulations and policies of a company
have to be communicated to people within and outside the organization. Business
Communication is regulated by certain rules and norms. In early times, business
communication was limited to paper-work, telephone calls etc. But now with advent of
technology, we have cell phones, video conferencing, emails, satellite communication to
support business communication. Effective business communication helps in building
goodwill of an organization.
Business Communication can be of two types:
1. Oral Communication - An oral communication can be formal or informal. Generally
business communication is a formal means of communication, like : meetings,
interviews, group discussion, speeches etc. An example of Informal business
communication would be - Grapevine.
2. Written Communication - Written means of business communication includes -
agenda, reports, manuals etc.
Oral communication implies communication through mouth. It includes individuals
conversing with each other, be it direct conversation or telephonic conversation. Speeches,
presentations, discussions are all forms of oral communication. Oral communication is
generally recommended when the communication matter is of temporary kind or where a
direct interaction is required. Face to face communication (meetings, lectures, conferences,
interviews, etc.) is significant so as to build a rapport and trust.
Advantages of Oral Communication
There is high level of understanding and transparency in oral communication as it is
interpersonal.
7. There is no element of rigidity in oral communication. There is flexibility for allowing
changes in the decisions previously taken.
The feedback is spontaneous in case of oral communication. Thus, decisions can be
made quickly without any delay.
Oral communication is not only time saving, but it also saves upon money and
efforts.
Oral communication is best in case of problem resolution. The conflicts, disputes and
many issues/differences can be put to an end by talking them over.
Oral communication can be best used to transfer private and confidential
information/matter.
Disadvantages/Limitations of Oral Communication
Relying only on oral communication may not be sufficient as business
communication is formal and very organized.
Oral communication is less authentic than written communication as they are
informal and not as organized as written communication.
Oral communication is time-saving as far as daily interactions are concerned, but in
case of meetings, long speeches consume lot of time and are unproductive at times.
Oral communications are not easy to maintain and thus they are unsteady.
There may be misunderstandings as the information is not complete and may lack
essentials
Written communication has great significance in today’s business world. It is an innovative
activity of the mind. Effective written communication is essential for preparing worthy
promotional materials for business development. Speech came before writing. But writing is
more unique and formal than speech. Effective writing involves careful choice of words,
their organization in correct order in sentences formation as well as cohesive composition of
sentences. Also, writing is more valid and reliable than speech. But while speech is
spontaneous, writing causes delay and takes time as feedback is not immediate.
There are several methods of business communication, including:
Web-based communication - for better and improved communication, anytime
anywhere ...
8. video conferencing which allow people in different locations to hold interactive
meetings;
Reports - important in documenting the activities of any department;
Presentations - very popular method of communication in all types of organizations,
usually involving audiovisual material, like copies of reports, or material prepared in
Microsoft PowerPoint or Adobe Flash;
telephone meetings, which allow for long distance speech;
forum boards, which allow people to instantly post information at a centralized
location; and
face-to-face meetings, which are personal and should be succeeded by a written
followup.
suggestion box,it is mainly for upward communication as because some people may
hesitate to communicate to the to management directly so they can give suggestion
by drafting
suggestion in suggestion box.
Purpose of study
1. Communication promotes motivation by informing and clarifying the employees
about the task to be done, the manner they are performing the task, and how to
improve their performance if it is not up to the mark.
2. Communication is a source of information to the organizational members for
decision-making process as it helps identifying and assessing alternative course of
actions.
3. Communication also plays a crucial role in altering individual’s attitudes, i.e., a well
informed individual will have better attitude than a less-informed individual.
Organizational magazines, journals, meetings and various other forms of oral and
written communication help in moulding employee’s attitudes.
4. Communication also helps in socializing. In todays life the only presence of another
individual fosters communication. It is also said that one cannot survive without
communication.
5. As discussed earlier, communication also assists in controlling process. It helps
controlling organizational member’s behaviour in various ways. There are various
levels of hierarchy and certain principles and guidelines that employees must follow
in an organization. They must comply with organizational policies, perform their job
9. role efficiently and communicate any work problem and grievance to their superiors.
Thus, communication helps in controlling function of management.
.
Objective of study
1.To Exchange Information: The prime objective of communication is to
exchange information internally and externally i.e. to deal within the
organization and outside the organization.
2. To Achieve Goal: The goal of the organization can be obtained
through effective organizational communication. Everybody tries to acquire such
goal and therefore it requires effective organizational communication.
3. To Maintain Co-ordination and Co-operation: Co-ordination and co-operation
among three levels i.e. corporate level, divisional level and functional level of an
Organization are maintained through communication.
4. To Plan: Planning decides what is to be done in future. All the information and
data which are required to make a plan for business can be obtained or gathered
through communication.
5. To Facilitate Direction and Motivation: The boss gives direction or order to his
subordinate. And managers need to motivate their employees to increase the
concentration and productivity. Hence, communication helps to facilitate
direction and motivation.
Theoreticalframework
This report demonstrates the idea and importance behind the Business Communication
within an Organization through step by step follow of well defined process. The report starts
with the Introduction part wherein analysis and importance of Business Communication is
discussed. Following which description of the methodology adopted i.e. Secondary research
in the form of Questionnaires and Interviews and analysis is carried upon on the basis of
data collected which leads us to the conclusion for the report.
Let us examine communication and communication theory through the following
viewpoints:
Mechanistic - The mechanistic view point says that communication is simply the
transmission of information from the first party to the second party. The first party
being the sender and the second party being the receiver.
Psychological - According to the psychological view point, communication is simply
not the flow of information from the sender to the receiver but actually the
10. thoughts, feelings of the sender which he tries to share with the recepients. It also
includes the reactions, feelings of the receiver after he decodes the information.
Social - The social view point considers communication as a result of interaction
between the sender and the receiver. It simply says that communication is directly
dependent on the content of the speech. “How one communicates” is the basis of
the social view point.
Systemic - The systemic view point says that communication is actually a new and a
different message which is created when various individuals interpret it in their own
way and then reinterpret it and draw their own conclusion.
Critical - The critical view point says that communication is simply a way with the
help of which an individual expresses his power and authority among other
individuals.
To summarize the communication theory proposes that to survive, every living entity, needs
to communicate with others and also among themselves. Communication is a dire need of
survival.

Primary data: Data collected by the investigator himself/ herself for a specific purpose.
Examples: Data collected by a student for his/her thesis or research project.
11. (In movies) The hero is directly told by the heroine that he is her “ideal man”.
Secondary data: Data collected by someone else for some other purpose (but being utilized
by the investigator for another purpose).
Examples: Census data being used to analyze the impact of education on career choice and
earning.

Literature review on Business Communication
Communication is a process of transferring information from one entity to another'.
However, communication is not just a process. It's an art of first listening or reading the
information, comprehending it, processing it and then transferring it. There is a huge
amount of effort that goes into communication. Gesticulations, voice modulation, body
language and the spoken language are some of the important aspects of communication. If
the other person is unable to comprehend any of these factors of communication, then the
process of communication fails. Communication involves the sharing of ideas and
information. While many people think of communication primarily in oral or written form,
communication is in fact so much more. A knowing look or a gentle touch can also
communicate a message loud and clear, as can a hard push or an angry slap. So, what is
communication -an interaction between two people in which something is exchanged
12. Lavinia Hulea(September 2005)pointed out that general communication processes rely on
messages implying contents, communication channels, a receiver and clear objectives. Once
accepting the importance of defining objectives, three strategies, narrative, implicative, and
decisional, seemto be specific for most business communications. While narrative business
communications convey information with a view of simply transmitting information and
depend on accuracy, complexity, and clarity, implicative business communications convey
information in order to determine a certain behavior of the receiver and rely on credibility,
logic, and motivation; decisional business communications transmit information having a
negative or positive connotation and depend on message, tone, and language.
Patricia Mark(January 2008) explained that communication skills top the list of what
employers look for the most in employees and job candidates. Unfortunately,
communication skills also top the list of skills most lacking in new college graduates. As a
result, many academicians have incorporated business communication courses into their
curricula to teach students to be effective communicators. These courses have historically
included such areasas oral and written communication, team skills, etc. but have generally
not emphasized skills that make students employable.
Manthy K.S. (january2009)wrote an article on the barriers to business communication
between the West and the Orient are discussed. It is noted that access to communication
resources between the two hemispheres is limited. Those resources that do exist are not
always readily accessible or easy to use. It is suggested that beyond the technical barriers of
communication is a very real fundamental interaction problem, as attempts are made to
translate very different languages and cultures into mutually comprehensible and
appreciable partnerships. Attention is given to technological advancements and cooperation
that are providing solutions to communication dissemination
MF Nielsen(January 2009) article will contribute to the study of leadership communication
by combining organization communication theory and conversation analytic methodology.
The article shows important ways in which middle managers “do leadership”: by
contextualizing employee actions and bringing employee perceptions in accordance with
executive-level perceptions of organizational practices.
Oksana Erdeli(march 2009) hypothesized that in cross-cultural business communication
stereotypes play a crucial role. In my research work I am trying to answer the following
questions: (a) do members of a business community in a given nationstate make use of
stereotypes while collecting information on another nation-state as a potential business
partner? (b) If so, what impact do they have on business communication? (c) If not, why are
these stereotypes rejected by members of the business community? Our discussion of the
role of stereotypes in business communication is conducted with the consideration of the
following criteria: age groups and stereotypes, professional position (rank) and stereotypes,
education and stereotypes, gender and stereotypes. The results obtained are applied to a
13. discussion of overall effectiveness of business companies immersed in national guises, with
particular reference to Ukrainian and Polish enterprises.
Ruhet Genc(july 2010) pointed out that communication entails the transfer of ideas,
thoughts or feelings by the sender to receiver via verbal or nonverbal means. This transfer
gains special significance in business especially in the service sector, since the service
providers work with humans and what distinguishes humans from any other species is their
ability to communicate with others. Communication affects a wide variety of business issues
including productivity and job satisfaction via improving the conveyance of information in
every level of the organization. Thus, in order to establish effective communication, the
managers in an organization has to channel the receiver what they mean to communicate in
a simple, direct and precise manner whether it be on the oral or written modality. To
achieve this end, they should also take into consideration the gender and cultural variations
in terms of communication.Anne Ellerup Nielsen(august 2010) paper is motivated by a
recent interest within public sector management and communication research of studying
higher education strategic communication and marketing. On the basis of a review of
relevant literature, the paper analyzes the occurrence of selected internally and externally
oriented CSR keywords in the sections of education, research and strategy of 17 business
schools’ website, the purpose being to investigate how business schools in different
contexts prioritize CSR communication on their websites, and whether this communication
is consistent. The findings are discussed in light of the context and increasing expectations
from stakeholders.
Ke Gong,(June 2011)said that as part of communication, cultural differences affect business
negotiation deeply. In a globalizing world today, with international business happened
frequently, cultural differences bring influence to communication, any misunderstanding of
it may directly affect the business. Therefore, it makes sense for the countries of different
cultural backgrounds to understand each other. With the entry into the 21st century and
China’s access to the WTO, Sino-U.S. trade and economy has developed rapidly, and it is
necessary for the negotiators from two countries to understand the cultural differences and
make full use of the beneficial strategies.Junko Kobayashi & Linda Viswat(26, July 2011)
paper summarizes the results of interviews and questionnaires of 20 American business
people who have experience in doing business with Japanese people and discusses how
Americans with a high degree of intercultural awareness made compromises or could make
compromises in order to conduct business negotiations more efficiently. While
acknowledging that one’s intercultural communication competence is context-dependent
and there is no panacea for resolving cultural differences, the constructive responses given
by the American business people will certainly help deepen Japanese and American mutual
understanding.
Vijay K. Bhatia(October 2012)said that the concept of Business English has undergone some
major shifts in the last few years because of a number of developments, such as advances in
14. genre theory and the coming together of English for Business Purposes and Business
Communication, inspired by the realization that there is a gap to be bridged between the
academy and the globalized business world. Drawing on advances in the analysis of business
discourses, especially in applied genre analysis, this state-of-the-art review revisits the
frameworks currently used in English for Business Purposes and Business Communication
(or, more generally, Professional Communication) to suggest an integration of the two
approaches for the design of English for Business Communication (EBC) programmes. The
study incorporates an extensive review of much of the relevant published work in all the
three areas mentioned above to identify some of the main issues in EBC, and illustrates a
gradual shift in the rationale for the design and implementation of EBC programmes.
Communication is life blood of a business organization. No organization can succeed or
progress, build up reputation, and win friends and customers without effective
communication skills.In fact successful communication is the bed rock of ground and
pleasant relationship between the seniors and sub ordinates, between the workers and
the management, between the customers and the sellers good and efficient systemof
communication helps in better coordination and efficient control. It results in clear
understanding, good production, healthy climate within the organization willing cooperation
among the various levels, if businessman can communicate effectively and successfully.

The article shows important ways in which middle managers “do leadership”: by
contextualizing employee actions and bringing employee perceptions in accordance with
executive-level perceptions of organizational practices.
Oksana Erdeli(march 2009) hypothesized that in cross-cultural business communication
stereotypes play a crucial role. In my research work I am trying to answer the following
questions: (a) do members of a business community in a given nationstate make use of
stereotypes while collecting information on another nation-state as a potential business
partner? (b) If so, what impact do they have on business communication? (c) If not, why are
these stereotypes rejected by members of the business community? Our discussion of the
role of stereotypes in business communication is conducted with the consideration of the
following criteria: age groups and stereotypes, professional position (rank) and stereotypes,
education and stereotypes, gender and stereotypes. The results obtained are applied to a
discussion of overall effectiveness of business companies immersed in national guises, with
particular reference to Ukrainian and Polish enterprises.
Ruhet Genc(july 2010) pointed out that communication entails the transfer of ideas,
thoughts or feelings by the sender to receiver via verbal or nonverbal means. This transfer
gains special significance in business especially in the service sector, since the service
providers work with humans and what distinguishes humans from any other species is their
ability to communicate with others. Communication affects a wide variety of business issues
16. including productivity and job satisfaction via improving the conveyance of information in
every level of the organization. Thus, in order to establish effective communication, the
managers in an organization has to channel the receiver what they mean to communicate in
a simple, direct and precise manner whether it be on the oral or written modality. To
achieve this end, they should also take into consideration the gender and cultural variations
in terms of communication.Anne Ellerup Nielsen(august 2010) paper is motivated by a
recent interest within public sector management and communication research of studying
higher education strategic communication and marketing. On the basis of a review of
relevant literature, the paper analyzes the occurrence of selected internally and externally
oriented CSR keywords in the sections of education, research and strategy of 17 business
schools’ website, the purpose being to investigate how business schools in different
contexts prioritize CSR communication on their websites, and whether this communication
is consistent. The findings are discussed in light of the context and increasing expectations
from stakeholders.
Ke Gong,(June 2011)said that as part of communication, cultural differences affect business
negotiation deeply. In a globalizing world today, with international business happened
frequently, cultural differences bring influence to communication, any misunderstanding of
it may directly affect the business. Therefore, it makes sense for the countries of different
cultural backgrounds to understand each other. With the entry into the 21st century and
China’s access to the WTO, Sino-U.S. trade and economy has developed rapidly, and it is
necessary for the negotiators from two countries to understand the cultural differences and
make full use of the beneficial strategies.Junko Kobayashi & Linda Viswat(26, July 2011)
paper summarizes the results of interviews and questionnaires of 20 American business
people who have experience in doing business with Japanese people and discusses how
Americans with a high degree of intercultural awareness made compromises or could make
compromises in order to conduct business negotiations more efficiently. While
acknowledging that one’s intercultural communication competence is context-dependent
and there is no panacea for resolving cultural differences, the constructive responses given
by the American business people will certainly help deepen Japanese and American mutual
understanding.
Vijay K. Bhatia(October 2012)said that the concept of Business English has undergone some
major shifts in the last few years because of a number of developments, such as advances in
genre theory and the coming together of English for Business Purposes and Business
Communication, inspired by the realization that there is a gap to be bridged between the
academy and the globalized business world. Drawing on advances in the analysis of business
discourses, especially in applied genre analysis, this state-of-the-art review revisits the
frameworks currently used in English for Business Purposes and Business Communication
(or, more generally, Professional Communication) to suggest an integration of the two
approaches for the design of English for Business Communication (EBC) programmes. The
study incorporates an extensive review of much of the relevant published work in all the
17. three areas mentioned above to identify some of the main issues in EBC, and illustrates a
gradual shift in the rationale for the design and implementation of EBC programmes.

communication skills.In fact successful communication is the bed rock of ground and
