Some practitioners may not have studied for a long time and therefore may not be confident and also a lack of ICT knowledge can be a potential barrier.

Management is also expected to properly handle the inevitable questions and grievances; it is important to avoid misinterpretation regarding the procedural
Royce would not work over forty hours because he would be working for free due to his pay grade. Frank thought it wasn’t fair for another employee to work seventy hours to get the job done and Royce isn’t contributing the full effort of collaborating for the Carlson project. Frank wants something done to help out that situation. McGee states that Royce is too good of an employee as he has fifteen years of experience to not let him go from his position.

Week One During the first week of our studies, the team members learned multiple facets of organizational communication. The team learned different theories concerning personalities and employee interactions. The equity theory is an important factor to determine the reaction of individuals for different situations such as pay, promotions, and tenure.

These kinds of concerns are important for the managers to be able to act upon them swiftly. It is pivotal to develop a good rapport with the staff and build a trusting relationship otherwise the supervision is not effective.
This means that I too provide the necessary tools for my employees to succeed, however, I do follow through to ensure that no employee is falling behind in any of their tasks and responsibilities.

I believe that the extra time that is spent training each employee, will yield higher and more positive results in the long run. By spending extra time with each employee also shows care and respect for each person.
