How’s your company’s nervous system?
Just like you, your organisation needs a healthy system to keep information flowing smoothly. Is your company’s info flow up to scratch?
Now, when we talk about information flow, we’re really talking about communication. And just like your body needs different types of nerves, your company needs various communication channels to keep things running smoothly.
Take email, for instance. It’s great for blasting out messages to the masses, but not so good for in-depth discussions. The key is to have a mix of channels, each with its own protocols and properties, to cover all your communication bases.
Let’s break it down
- The CEO Email Blast: Perfect for getting the same message out to everyone. Just remember, not everyone will read between the lines the same way.
- The Trickle-Down: Great for tailoring messages as they move through the ranks. It’s like a game of telephone, but with a purpose.
- The Return Trip: This is where things get tricky. How do you get feedback from the trenches back up to the top brass?
The problem is, most companies are great at sending messages out but rubbish at getting them back in. You’ve got three main return channels:
- Email: But let’s face it, your CEO doesn’t want 5,000 replies clogging up their inbox.
- The Trickle-Up: Sounds good in theory, but it’s like trying to push a boulder uphill. The higher up the chain it goes, the less likely anyone is to care.
- The Annual Survey: Anonymous, sure, but it’s only available for a tiny slice of the year. Plus, it’s a one-way street – no chance for follow-up questions.
