Begin this week’s original post development by using the Library to identify a scholarly article on any aspect of Organizational Communication discussed by Deetz. The chosen article should be:
- peer-reviewed
- published within the last five years
- associated with any managerial communication (MC) function and theory
See Module 2 Lecture Page I and Bell and Martin (2012) [required reading] for examples to guide your research.
Use the following guidelines to develop the original post:
- Introduce your chosen scholarly article by providing a synopsis including the purpose of the study, the method of study, and the results.
- Then, discuss the article by answering the following questions:
- What is the function and what is the theory base?
- What is the connection between the MC function and one of the general management areas of planning, organizing, directing-leading, and control-evaluation functions?
- How is the MC function relevant in your current work organization?
