2. Rajeev started working in an MNC. He was very devoted towards his job.
However, whenever he used to communicate with his subordinates they were
unable to understand him. The reason behind this problem was that he himself
was unsure about the concept he used to explain to the subordinates. This
problem was taking place on a daily basis. One day he got an order form his senior
to fly to Goa for a project meeting. There he started explaining his concept to
others but there were many aspects which the team of Goa wanted to explain to
him. He was more concerned about speaking than listening. This resulted in the
failure of the meeting which was very important. When Rajeev returned back to
his home town he was sad. In this hopelessness he forgot to review the
instructions he had given to his subordinates about a very important programme
to be organized in his home town. Definitely Rajeev is facing problems related
with communication effectiveness.
What measures would you suggest to Rajeev so that he could improve his
communication effectiveness?
