Organizations as well as individuals benefit from regular self-assessment. To assess whether you have the systems and processes in place to create an open communications culture, consider these questions:
- Do we have a communications policy to ensure we all understand the importance, accountability and process of communications in our organization?
- Do the communications in our organization support our mission, vision and strategy?
- Is our head of communications involved in corporate strategic planning?
- Are our internal and external communications consistent and transparent?
- Do we regularly measure the effectiveness of our communications with our key stakeholders?
- Are our managers formally assessed and rewarded for their communications effectiveness?
- Do we provide skills development for our managers to help them become good communicators?
