Sometimes, people think that good communication is "the job of the communications department," and it is not. What does this mean, exactly? The communications department in companies should deliver all of the communication to employees at the same time, but that is not possible because mass communication to employees is difficult. Managers think that it is up to the communications department to take care of important company communications, not them. But people want to hear important news from their managers. Communication is the job of the communications department, and it varies if the department is good at it or not. The communications department is hired to communicate on behalf of the C-Suite, but they are not hired for strategic communications like that. Besides, the C-Suite is perfectly capable of giving their own speeches or putting out communications.
