...Managerial Communications according to Hynes is a strategic three layer approach to communication that managers and employees alike can use to and incorporate in order to create an efficient and effective work environment. Hynes separate’s the managerial communication process into three distinct layers in order to form a total approach to how the process should be incorporated. The first layer is based on trust and open communication. By incorporating both climate and communication in the first layer Hynes allows us to see that in order to build a positive work environment there must be trust between the employee and employer. Trust allows employees to build a stronger foundation with their employers and thus improves work performance. At the same time in order for the employee to gain trust in their manager it requires that those managers use correct communication skills to speak to their employees. Open and accessible environments lend to allow for better overall communication in the workplace. Take for example, two employees and their relationship with their manager. Employee John has a friendly relationship outside of work with his manager, he has built a foundation of trust and communication with his manager on a personal and professional level. The second employee Joe only communicates with his manager at work and has also built a professional relationship with his manager. While both employees has a foundation of trust with their manager John may feel he has a closer...

Some of the terrorists groups of the area are thought to have use the internet to recruit people. This is causing great concern with the politicians. Anything can be posted on the internet. There is no control. The politicians want the people to express their thoughts re terrorists using the internet to recruit. I believe people should be appalled that everyday people can be influenced by them. I believe people should want to bring some kind of controls to the postings people are allowed to use. I believe people should come together on the internet and discuss their thoughts re this outrageous behavior. This should be controlled. The more people protest and discuss their outrage for this behavior the more people will start to notice. If people do not say anything this could continue. Do you want your child to...
