Communication is one of the most essential factors influencing employee’s behaviour. Employee’s perception towards the organization and their team manager determines their behaviour.
Communication enables employees to understand what their organization wants them to do? Communication helps in changing an individual’s attitude and thought process.
Managers need to know whether their team members are facing any sort of problems or not? How would you come to know what your subordinates are up to unless and until you interact with them?

Rather than fighting, it is always better to talk and find a mutually beneficial solution. If you are facing any sort of trouble, please do not hesitate to discuss with your superiors. There is no use of cribbing and criticizing others. Verbal communication plays a crucial role in strengthening the relationship among fellow workers and their team managers.
Managers need to pay attention to the needs and demands of employees. Communicate and help the employees understand the company’s goals and objectives. Make sure employees understand their roles and responsibilities. Communicating by speaking face to face rather than interacting only through emails plays an imperative role in motivating the employees to deliver their level best. Communication helps employees understand organization’s behaviour standards and how they need to behave as a mature and sensible professional.
Greet your employees with a smile. Remember, a pleasant smile can not only make the other individual happy but also set his/her mood for the day. Communication helps employees develop a positive attitude towards work and organization on the whole.
