Establishments in the same group of companies may frequently be separated geographically by considerable distance. Therefore, it is impossible to hold effective meetings or to contact all interested parties. Consequently, a good communications is essential to the effective operation of any organization. This is because of its persuasive nature.

Communication is often referred to as the network that binds together all the members and activities within an organization through “communication” is a highly ambiguous term which stems from the latin word “communiqué” is meaning to share, to make common to comport for the purpose of this study, I shall defined it (communication) as the preference of information is, sharing of ideals and instructions of feeling between individual or groups of individual and within or between organizations at inter-organizational levels. Though, the transmission of this information, ideals and their activities may co-ordinate in the pursuit of organizational goals and individuals satisfaction. However, in order to achieve this, management must decide upon the form and content in any items of communication. To do these properly, it is essential first to decide the exact purpose of this communication and a thorough appreciation of the knowledge, understanding, interest and attitudes at those who will receive the information. Hence, management of kinds has a greats responsibility to ensure that adequate communication occurs in their organization, communication therefore become an indispensable functions of people and organizations or the organism relocates its part and its environment and relate its part and its internal processes one to the other. That is to say, communication is the life wire of any meaningful existing organization.

However, it is worth noting that communication even between friends is at best difficult and at time impossible to achieve, in spite of their relationship, it may be expected therefore, that where hierarchical relationship exists as in Hamdala Hotel, and where interpersonal feelings are some time more negative, even more attention and effort, it is to yield the level of understanding necessary for efficient operations.
