Business Communication: A Practical Guide

Poor or inaccurate communication is extremely costly. A survey of 400 corporations (with 100,000 plus employees in the U.S. and U.K.) estimated that ineffective or inaccurate communication costs the average organization $62.4 million per year in lost productivity. (Inc.®, Michael Schneider, 2018) Smaller companies are also affected by poor communication. Companies of 100 employees or less lose an average $420,000 per year in productivity from miscommunication. SHRM®, 2016, Debra Hamilton).
