(The Essential Guide to Group Communication)

Communicating in Organizations
In Chapter 4, I found the section pertaining towards organization systems to be an incredibly fascinating topic. Important, key vocabulary terms for communicating in organizations included: systems, wholeness, hierarchy, openness, adaptability, and equifinality. It essentially covered the basis and stressed the importance of communication in organization is crucial and fundamental. Communication, and the way it happens and works in organizations, according to the text, is not a moderately easy process to grasp. It is easier and much more helpful to the reader or person attempting to understand communication in organizations to view organizations (or things of that kind that use communication in the same way) as systems. Systems, like organizations, usually stand on their own, providing for themselves, solely building themselves up; they are utterly independent.

Eventually the organization would have to attain traits that could improve their quality and quantity in people. The idea of wholeness, hierarchy, openness, adaptability, and equifinality all have related traits that lead back to people themselves. One must have openness to respect and hear other's thoughts and opinions on subject opinions that are different from the default perspective. One must adapt to change and realize the frailty and inexactitude of constants in organizations, and how easily changeable they can become in order to achieve betterment in its entirety. Equifinality is the ability to create multiple ideas and possibilities to arrive and attain its results, according to the text. All things have details that are acquired by numerous people achieving a plethora of different tasks that ultimately, in its whole, help to achieve a single result of achievement and improvement. It's very wonderful and interesting.
