Abstract:
Organizational communication is the set of communication dynamics found within an organization. It is considered the unique approach of an organization when it comes to communicating internally and externally. This study focuses on civil engineers who are a part of a civil engineering institution and how their organizational communication works. For the research design, the descriptive qualitative design was employed. Data was gathered through an interview lasting ten to fifteen minutes. Thematic analysis was used to process the qualitative information gathered by the researchers. The researchers observed that their communication within their organization is direct. They faced several challenges regarding culture, generational gap, and conversing with foreign workers. Hence, adapting to new cultures and norms brought by the changing times may help in facilitating clearer communication within their organization.
