Answer 1

• Downward Flow/Downward network
• Communications that flow down from one level to the next range from operational to strategic matters. Day-to-day matters include supervisor directives, feedback, training and appraisals. Starting at the top with the owner, though, management must also provide leadership by communicating broader concerns — guiding principles, such as the company’s vision, mission and strategic goals. Keeping these relevant drives the business along its proper track. Besides one-on-one and group meetings, tools to transmit messages include newsletters and blogs, social media, procedure manuals, reports, memos and letters.
