Background: Autocratic Style I grew up in a top-down hierarchal family environment. Decisions depending on their affect on the family where either made by my grandfather or mother. We were all involved in the family business and everyone was expected to contribute. Fortunately, most decisions had a long term purpose which helped prioritize desired outcomes and business goals. It also included the direction on how myself and cousins were raised. It was communicated to myself at a very young age (2nd grade) that I would be going to college and business school.

Communication is one of the most important parts of any relationship. Business relationships are no different. Having effective business communication or not having effective business communication can positively or negatively impact the success of an entire organization. Unfortunately, there are many barriers that can obstruct effective business communication. Those barriers come in four different categories. Those categories are personal barriers, physical barriers, sematic barriers and process barriers.

Effective communication is important in developing positive relationships with children, young people and adults alike. It is the central key to establishing and maintaining such positive relationships. It means listening, questioning, understanding and responding to match each individual’s stage of development, their age, personal circumstances and their needs. It is important for the communication to be on the same level as the person you are speaking to so that neither person seems to have more power than the other. Good communication is not just about listening and speaking, it is also about watching and feeling. Excellent communication builds trust in relationships with all.
Being able to communicate through speech and language, but more importantly understand and use communication effectively is critical in supporting and developing the behavioural, emotional and social needs of a child or young person.
Communication is “the process of relaying information between or among people by the use of words, letters, symbols, or body language” (Cherry & Jacob, 2011, p. 381). Communication is a two- way process; the message conveyed by the sender needs to be heard and understood by the receiver. It is important for “leaders to communicate regularly and consistently with staff” (Shifflet & Moyer, 2010, p. 252). Some
Communication is holding an important role in an organization. It facilitates people in making decision and making the decision implemented in actions. Therefore, organizational communication is seen as a process of moment-to-moment negotiations among the members of fulfilling their needs as employees and the needs of the organization. They mention that the needs of the employee are including autonomy, creativity, and sociability; while the organization has to control and coordinate their employees to meet its certain goals.

Effective communication is essential in any business role. Relaying information within a company has to be effective, clear, and easy to understand to be successful. A good communicator has several reasonsfor being good. Ranging from knowing the information they are presenting to having the confidence in their ability to speak in front of crowds.

Being in a state of nature allows complete privacy but lacks any sense of security. An individual is allowed to protect there belongs by any means they find necessary, but so can anyone else. An important reason why individuals agree to enter a social contract is for the protection from other individuals. However, when you agree to allow the government to provide protection an individual must also agree to give up two important liberties: the ability to use whatever force an individual finds appropriate to feel safe and the ability to have complete privacy. Under Locke’s point of view, when being in a social contract you still have a right to self defense however, protect for the society should be handled by the government.

When supervisors put into practice the tenets of the communication contract, employees are more likely to follow it as well and be more productive and engaged within the organization (Mishra, Boynton, & Mishra, 2014). Although it would be ideal if all individuals bought into the idea behind the communication contract and followed it without fail, it is inevitable that there will be times in which the principles of the contract are broken. When an abuse of the communication contract occurs, it is the responsibility of leadership to identify the situation and properly resolve it (Dresp-Langley, 2009). Therefore, it is important to not only define and structure a communication contract for my organization, but to also recognize the need for proper supervision and enforcement of the contract by

A communication contract helps to keep organizational relationships and communication between people in respectful and professional manners. According to Dresp-Langley (2009), a contract in communication promotes an ethical speech, which can be also revised by business leaders. This helps to be able to keep track of what, when and how people speak and express opinions in meetings. For instance, it creates an environment where employees must respect other, because there are rules where people’s relationships are based on organizational values.
The cornerstone to a successful firm is good communication. Without it, there is confusion, resentment, and a blurry vision for the direction the company wants to go. In order to ensure there is successful communication amongst the managers and its employees of the firm, a communication contract should be created. This contract establishes ethical communication and rules for which each individual is to follow when communicating with others. Aside from creating excellent communication within the firm, the communication contract creates long lasting benefits for the firm and creates a solid foundation.
