Selecting the proper medium

This time we'll talk about yes as the title says selecting the proper medium. However, we would deviate from the previous posts. This post is all about selecting the proper medium that is more convenient for the orgcom practitioner.

You see being an orgcom practitioner is tricky and yes difficult mainly because you have to meet halfway with your client. Unlike other professions in which you can go about your way, orgcom professionals need to strike a deal with their client even if its beyond their likeness or preference.

This is the crucial part: when you dissect it you have to think of four things when choosing a proper medium. Take note: this is based from my personal insights and experience while studying organizational communication. You have to consider: (1) your knowledge, skills and expertise with using that medium, (2) Your client's preference on what medium he or she wants, (3) how the medium can support the content and to its success, and (4) how your audience will react to the medium used.

So in order to select the proper medium one must master to combine all the four things to consider in making the decision on what to use for their communication plan.

On a more personal note, i for example am not really into blogging because i can't clearly express myself through writing that much. Maybe it's because of the lagging time it takes for my brain to transfer my thoughts into writing. To be honest, it's easier for me when i speak. So most of the time i have a voice recorder with me to record my thoughts. I am actually thinking of doing podcasts because i think that's what soothes me more. HAHAHA :))

That's it for now! Til my next post :)
