Abstract
IN my last article I promised to extend the investigation on the influence of group dynamics on organizational interfaces and provide some hints on how to improve communication exchange within a team or even multiple teams of the same department, division or even an entire company. As you may have experienced yourself, during important meetings, some people may express their surprise over statements or decisions that have been previously made and claim to have never heard about it. This is a real nuisance as it could have been prevented from the beginning by keeping people actively in the information loop. Furthermore, it also potentially delays the timely execution of a project by re-discussing these issues over and over in groups of various compositions. But, at the end of the day, it is mainly a problem of interpersonal communication, or the lack thereof. How you could prevent such situations? Answer: with a few simple tricks that will stimulation interaction and facilitate communication.
