Leadership Communications + Crisis

 


communication network refers to how information flows within the organization, information within an organization generally flows through a system rather than being a free flow. there are two types of communications networks formal and Informal. Formal communication network is the one which is created by the management and describes with the help of an organizational chart. Information in formal communication network is passed through official channels such as memos, bulletins, and emails. Informal communication is like a grapevine. It does not flow in a particular direction, and doesn't go through the official channels like bulletin, memos etc. It's based more on friendship, personal career interests.  For my free creation, I choose to do a visual meme about informal communication slapping the organized information away because of the nature of the communication that it uses.

How to Pitch a Brilliant Idea (Video)

In class we had a presentation about pitching a brilliant idea, and we were told to make a small video about a topic that we are passionate to talk about. It took me a long time to upload this video, not because it was hard to make but because it was hard for me to have a video of me seen by my whole class. To me presenting is easier than having a video that everyone can look back at any time they want, but I glad that we got to do something like this because it made me realize that in future I will need this sort of experience if I want to get my own business.

Even though the thought of having a video of me speaking was hard for me to process at first but as soon I uploaded it, my stress kind of went away.
