1.3
Communication can be defined as process is that help in sharing information, ideas,
news among members. Every organisation have their different type of communication which
they follow to facilitate exchange of information and ideas. The communication process help in
assuring the proper knowledge among employee about their roles and responsibilities etc. By
proper communication,company can prevent duplication of efforts etc. In addition to this aspect,
with proper interaction with employees, management can know their creative ideas, suggestion
etc. which can be used to improve the performance of business. The different companies use
contrasting communication methods. This is further explained through communication process
on both the selected entities, Savoy and Starbucks (Castells, 2013).
From the critical analysis of Savoy hotel, it has been identified that company is having
vertical structure. In this structure, the executives have command and control on work performed

by employees. The key decision regarding the functioning of company are taken by top
executives. This further results into a strict hierarchy that must be followed (Selznick, 2011).
Therefore, communication is vertical which means the flow of information from up and down
the chain of command. Therefore, strict formal method is followed due which operational worker
cannot have direct interaction with the top executives. Further,company use traditional methods
for exchanging information. Therefore, reports, formal letters, emails,memos and notice board
etc are mainly used to transmit any information or idea(McQuail and Windahl, 2015).
On the other hand, Starbucks have horizontal structure which have less level of hierarchy
between top and lower level management. The employees at the same level can exchange
information. It further use both formal and informal channels of communication. The key benefit
of using horizontal communication is that it enhance coordination among employees of various
department (Stark, 2006). Therefore, Starbucks company use varied tools for communication
such as emails,MS Chrome, telecommunication,instant messaging etc. Further, the
organizational members use group discussion, brainstorming sessions and one to meetings to
communicate important information. Other than this, company use social media sites and
interactive portals to obtain suggestion, creative ideas and other aspects from employees. This
further help in strengthening the trust level and interpersonal relationship among executives and
employees.
1.4
Organisation culture is a method of common values and beliefs which determine how
individuals behave in company. The shared value have a powerful impact on the organizational
members at the Savoy hotel and Starbucks. The organization culture and determine the way
employees must attire, act, and execute their jobs. Culture is combined with different
characteristics that range in the priority from high to low. Organisation culture is very essential
aspect in order to bring potency and healthy environment (Bratton and Gold, 2012). Culture
determines the way employees interact with each other, follow discipline and perform their job
at workplace (Schein, 2006). As per the Handy Four Class of Culture , there are different culture
that can be considered by entity. The Starbucks focuses on Task culture where different teams
are developed to resolve the specific issues. The power originate from expertise till there is need
of skilled and knowledgable individual. The main concern of this culture is to complete the
activities on time. In addition to this, person culture is used where functions of individual are

determined strongly by the wishes of the person who is component of the company. On the other
hand, savoy hotel use power culture. In this culture, the top executives have control and
dominance in making the major decisions throughout the entity. It further makes it complex to
introduce changes as employees are not part of decision making process and does not agree
easily for the proposed alterations in working styles and practices (Scott and Jaffe, 2004).
