I need your help with the following:
You are a middle manager in a computer software company. The company has the standard departments: sales, marketing, HR, R&D, etc. The vertical flow of information is not coming from the top down (uni-directional). An employee survey has shown that upper management is consequently not inquiring about vital employee issues.
You are in charge of designing a meeting agenda based on a particular communication strategy.
Prepare the agenda for a meeting to design a communication strategy that makes management communication more responsive (bi-directional). Your agenda should address these following questions:
a. What subjects should be covered?
b. Who should attend the meeting?
c. What should be the meeting approach?
d. What is the meeting timeline?
e. What action should be taken?
