Abstract | Internal communication has evolved over the years from simple one-way communication to multi-directional communication; sources have gone online and it is now easy for employees to talk to one another with help of social media. People are relying on each other to provide and receive information which has eliminated sole information broadcasting. Now, communicators have more platforms and tools to explore in communicating with employees and having them communicate among themselves. Additionally, internal communication becomes more complicated once an employer goes multinational, bringing in different cultural traits. Language and cultural barriers start to form providing obstacles in communicating with each other. So, the role of what the author deems “cultural translators” becomes important. To support this notion, the paper also reviews three multinational companies, NHN USA, PEAK Sports USA and Novartis Oncology. |
