Internal Audiences
Part 1
Think about:
• “Communication is the defining factor whether a group of
humans cooperating towards some common purpose are
‘an organisation’ or not.
• It is the means through which people express a common
purpose, agree on objectives and work together. An
organisation’s culture, which can be crucial in determining
its success or ensuring its failure, is created and expressed
primarily through communication.”
Tench and Waddington, 2021, p. 306
