Background Of The Study
Despite the vital role communication plays in the day-to-day running of an organization there are still numerous cases of ineffective communication in many organization.
The causes of communication problems in the organization could be attributed to the following factors of variables. When the management of an organisation are friendly and have a good working report, communication tends to be effective but as soon as members of the organisation gossips, or when there is feelings of incompetence and insecurity, there is bound to be ineffective communication.
Moreover ineffective communication in an organisation could as well be a deliberate action of the receiver of the sender. Inability of the sender to properly encode and transmit the message situation about where the subordinate failed to carry out a directive because he thought the superior was not serious.
Ineffective communication could be due to overloading of information. Too much communication bogs down the entire system. Judicious selection of information helps to avoid dogging the entire system with irrelevant memoranda floating around the management from the habit of not reading their mails, and therefore refers to those mails as Junki.
Meanwhile mechanical inefficiency loads to ineffective our organisation. Lack of proper facilitates like telex, telegraphs and fax, telephones etc which is being used for sending and as well as receiving infant business information causes breakdown in communication process.
1.2 Statement Of The Problems
Inadequacy and distortion of information to gross inefficiencies. This may result from labour management problems, high morale of workers, lack of workers contribution on decision making etc.
Moreover, inadequate communication can also lead to great financial looses important information reporting immediate crucial decision often arrived late when by looses may have been incurred. Delays in communication have endangered management effectiveness where there is a poor information system the result has been that rumour or gossip arose and often inadequate communication brings misunderstanding and conflicts which possibly lead to industrial strikes and interruption in production operations.
Furthermore, information overload brings breakdown in the communication process. Judicious selection of information helps to avoid dogging the entire system with irrelevant information. In organizations where there are too many memoranda floating around, the managers may form the habit of not reading their mails which he may refer to as (Junk) or of no value.
Another problem of communication in filtering it occurs when the sender sieves the information and transmits only the favourable aspect of it. When the whole picture is not presented there scarcely can the real intention of the message be achieved.

This study will also benefit the organization because based on the findings and recommendations they will have an unbelieved in sight into the communication process of the enterprise with a view to identify problems areas. The recommendation will also benefit them since their implementation may be a solution to the identified problems.
