Description and rationale for proposed project (in accessible terms – what is the research
question, how can people benefit, what are potential risks, and how are they mitigated?)
Aim of the project is “To analyse the impact of ineffective communication process on
workflow of a media production company”
Based on the above aim, following research questions have been framed:
 What are the various aspects of effective communication?
 What is the impact of ineffective communication process on work flow of media
production company?
 What are the recommendations on effective communication process that can be given

information regarding impact of ineffective communication on work flow of the organization
and hence developed the interest in stated topic. Hence, the topic holds great importance
academically as well. Further, the research will help in understanding the loopholes of the
research that has already been conducted by other scholars. It will assist in understanding the
concept of effective communication strategies, a step further.
