This document discusses communication in an organizational context. It defines communication as the transmission of thoughts, information, and commands using sensory channels. The communication process involves a sender, message, encoding, channel, receiver, decoding, and feedback. There are different types of communication based on flow (downward, upward, horizontal), relationship (formal, informal), and expression (verbal, non-verbal, oral, written). Barriers to effective communication can arise from linguistic difficulties, emotional/psychological factors, or issues within the organizational structure. The goal of understanding communication processes and barriers is to improve interaction and information sharing within an organization.

Growing a whole institution culture of commitment to student engagementJisc
As the student engagement agenda has gained momentum in UK higher and further education, there are numerous interesting and complex issues that arise and seemingly prevent a whole institutional commitment to working with students as partners.
Issues such as departmental autonomy, traditional hierarchies and power dynamics, and lack of time invested in innovative student engagement all contribute to a landscape where engaging students remains a project rather than a culture, and something done in a few departments rather than across a whole institution.
