As I understand, I am expected to create a change management plan for the U.S. branch of the Singaporean so ft ware solu ti ons provider as part of milestone 2 so here are the topics to be covered: What could be an internal communication issue in the U.S. branch? Based on the research done so far, it seems there could be multiple issues going on with the US Branch when it comes to internal communication.  First the US branch does not have balance as far as diversity is concerned which might be causing a language or cultural barrier in communication.  There are obviously physical boundaries, time differences between Singapore and the US branch which might be causing the challenges and that could be the reason why US employees prefer to maintain and communicate through the roaster or worksheet rather than meetings with their colleagues at home office in Singapore causing barriers in effective communication.  Within US branch as well some employee could be working remotely or working different schedules which could be causing another set of challenges.  There could be lack of clear communication structure and employees may not clarity on whom to approach for a specific issue creating communication gaps in between.  Lack of communication is one problem with the US branch and whatever communication is happening is only one way communication when it is expected to be a both way communication between managers, leadership & employees. Both way communication offers an opportunity to employees to clarify the information communicated, avoids delays and mistakes.  Consistency in terms of how often the communication happens and what message is communicated is possibly a a big issue at the US branch.  Misalignment between leadership, middle managers, employees, their goals & organizational goals is another possible issue with the US branch.

What are the top two roles of strategic internal communication for successful change initiatives? Here are my thoughts around role of strategic internal communication:  Achieve strategic alignment across the organization
