Improving communication in the workplace is essential. Without an understanding of accountability and organisational culture, this can’t be achieved. It can only be achieved through transparency which can benefit both the employee and the organisation.
Information sharing is one of the most valuable components in any organisation, however, some organisations find it difficult to manage information, especially if it’s not digital. Documents end up being misplaced before it even gets to the relevant person, resulting in delays and additional expenses. Business software solutions from Lorge can effectively eliminate such problems. These business solutions allow organisations to work together, by giving them a new working structure and processes that enhance information sharing and general communication in a broader sense .
Employees ought to feel safe and open when sharing information that will benefit the organisation. Keeping information for personal use and advancement will not work if you are part of a team. There are various reasons why important information can be misconstrued. This is mostly due to lack of effective communication channels within an organisation.
Benefits of sharing information across departments:
- Transparent communication: creates trust as every employee needs to feel valued and part of the team. Having regular meetings and building a relationship with employees is essential as it promotes trust, confidence and openness, thereby allowing business owners to spot potential in employees. This also ensures that employees are aware of the plans and goals of the organisation
- Improved interdepartmental communication: built trust leads to improved production and work efficiency, instead of employees sitting with distress and a bad attitude towards their work. A lot of problems can be resolved by working through any issues the company may have. This will make employees feel included in business decision making
- Identify which information is worth sharing: if information concerns employees and their work, they have a right to know. Either the information helps them work more efficiently or it gives them a perspective on how their work should be done. If there is a challenge to find alternative ways to address an issue, this will be easy as you’ll have a team that is willing to share their ideas and opinions
- Trust: whenever we share information of any kind or nature, we trust the people that will handle it responsibly. Any information shared across organisations will be safe as it will be built on a healthy relationship. When departments trust each other, they help each other operate effectively. Ultimately, this journey builds a powerful relationship. A high level of trust contributes to employee participation, improving leadership and organisational culture
- Improved customer service: when each department is aware of their roles, a client is able to obtain assistance from any department as they will have access to the information that the customer needs. This will ensure that all employees are producing a high level of customer service. Customers appreciate a good work ethic as well as goal orientated organisations
Hiring employees who are willing to give honest feedback is essential. This shows their efforts by demonstrating that they are being team players. Managing and following up on information is also important. However, the immediate challenge is implementing a new process and using it to replace the old system. Furthermore, these need to be continuously improved in order to meet your targets.
Sharing information makes employees more aware of their roles and responsibilities. If employees see their organisation making an effort when it comes to communicating important information, instead of hearing it through hearsay, they’ll make an effort to communicate their suggestions openly as well. Although not everyone can be included in decision making, management should seek suggestions from employees and understand how the potential decision would make them feel.
