There are many communication methods that you can use with your employees. Most businesses use more than one method. A good communication channel will have the following key elements:
- It's authentic - employees know their employer genuinely wants to listen to them
- It's regular - how regular will depend on the method. Team meetings might occur weekly or fortnightly, but employee surveys may happen once a year
- It's targeted - while there might be some overlap, employees should know what type of communication method is more appropriate for certain information
- It's 2-way - employees know their employer will consider what they have to say and will respond. PRACTICAL TIP: Some examples of communication methods include:
