Iklim Komunikasi Keorganisasian
Abstract: Organizational
communication climate has become a major concept in organizational
communication since it was coined by W. Charles Redding in 1972. Its conceptual
origin, however, goes back to the much earlier work of of Chester Barnard
(1938). Numerous research works since early 1970’s have empirically tested its
position as a major variable for organizational effectiveness. It is now
assumed that communication climate is the sine qua non for effective
organizational management. This article traces the development of our
understanding of the concept through the works of two different schools of
thought, namely the functionalist and the interpretivist ones. Implications for
future research are carefully described.
Key words: communication climate, organizational
climate, defensive communication, ideal management climate
