As a result, morale problems, duplication of effort, breakdown of interdivisional cooperation, and diminished customer service have become the norm. The research objectives of this report are to assess DNR's current communication climate--including a close look at communication at three levels within the organization: employee/supervisor, inter- and intra-divisional, and agencywide communication, both upward and downward- and to evaluate the effectiveness of existing and potential formal communication tools for correcting defined problems.DocumentCopyright status undetermined.
