Answer to Question 2
Communication can involve sending messages to both large and small audiences. Internal messages are intended for recipients within an organization. External messages are directed to recipients outside the organization. When considering the intended audience, communication can be described as taking place on five levels: intrapersonal, interpersonal, group, organizational, and public. An effective communicator has a clearly defined purpose for each message and selected strategies for targeting his or her intended audience.
a . Intrapersonal communication level: This communication level involves communication within oneself. However, this level of communication is not considered by some to be true communication as it does not involve a separate sender and receiver. For example, an individual considers how others respond to his or her verbal and/or nonverbal communication.
b. Interpersonal communication level: This communication level involves communication between two people. The task goal of this communication level is to accomplish work confronting the two people. In this communication level, the maintenance goal is to feel better about themselves and each other because of their interaction. For example, communication between supervisor and subordinate and between two coworkers.
c. Group communication level: This communication level involves communication among more than two people. Here, the goal is to achieve greater output than individual efforts could produce. Examples include work group, project team, and department meeting.
d. Organizational communication level: This communication level involves groups combined in such a way that large tasks may be accomplished. The goal of this communication level is to provide adequate structure for groups to achieve their purposes. Examples include communication with a company or an organization.
e. Public communication level: This communication level involves an organization reaching out to its public to achieve its goals. The goal is to reach many with the same message. Examples include media advertisement, website communication, and the annual report. See 1-3: Communicating within Organizations
