With a growing organization, there's always a hierarchy. Getting in touch with your CEO might not always be possible,but the best businesses work to break down silos and help people connect with each other. Incorporating the right communication tools can be a game-changer for building transparency, simplifying communication across all roles, and making it easier to collaborate, irrespective of location.
Fostering transparency through internal communication tools
If your organization aims to build trust and develop a unique company culture that even speaks to future hires, fostering transparency through internal communication is a key factor making the difference. In a work environment where leaders are transparent, employees feel valued and motivated to contribute towards the company's success. This also improves their job satisfaction and helps improve overall retention.
With internal communication tools, employees get instant access to colleagues through chat or call, which helps them collaborate efficiently and get the job done faster. This vastly contributes to their productivity and overall business performance. A simple search brings up people across departments, removing the hassle of figuring out the right point of contact. From the CEO to the newest hire, anyone can be found and reached with an internal communication tool.
With channels in place for every team, communication is straightforward, and everyone has access to key information at all times. Responsibilities remain transparent, and follow-ups are easier to handle. Addressing issues, applauding someone's work, expressing your opinion, and providing feedback becomes just a chat or a call away. There's also an account of conversations across the entire organization, so management can tackle issues if they arise in the future.
How Zoho Cliq streamlines communication
Organizing conversations
Channels in Cliq are the ideal way to organize and share conversations across the organization. Channels can be created for the entire organization, specific teams, or external stakeholders. Each channel acts as a repository of information—with messages, files, meetings, and notes that anyone in the group can access. To exercise control over the channel, owners can assign moderators and limit permissions for other members. You can also sync data from third-party apps and funnel it to a channel, like routing support tickets for easy monitoring, assignment, and collaboration.
Easy information access
With Cliq's centralized file storage, any file you want to locate is never far away. Whether it's a message, document, shared image, or meeting notes, you can leverage filters to narrow down your results and get quick access to whatever you are looking for.
Scheduling and task management
All goes haywire if not managed well. That's why effective task scheduling and deadline management are crucial for increased productivity and reduced bottlenecks. With Cliq's in-house calendar and task management, you can prepare for what's ahead and ensure your team is on the same page, ready to tackle the work ahead. You can create meetings and see them reflected in your calendar, assign tasks with due dates, and closely monitor everything using the dashboard.
Centralizing information
Imagine having all that you need to run your business in just one location—your powerhouse of productivity. With Zoho Cliq, it's entirely possible. Use custom apps, integrations, and workflow automation to funnel all your information right into your internal communication tool. You can tag the updates to relevant channels or manage these apps from widgets, so you never have to switch tabs.
Easy access to leadership
With designation in place, it becomes easier to identify your coworkers. A quick search using Cliq's advanced search bar can fetch you results on your organization's leadership and management, making it smooth for you to reach out to the right people. This empowers every employee and promotes confidence at work. After all, positive work culture is the fuel for successful workplaces, and everything else comes second.
Effortless cross-team collaboration
Connecting teams across the organization, irrespective of their location, is one of the best aspects of internal communication tools, and Cliq does just that. With every single employee onboarded and organized into teams, it's easier to identify them when cross-team collaboration is required. If a marketer has to reach out to the sales team for a lead-nuturing campaign, they can quickly set up a channel, exchange information, share files, and set up meetings, right from their desk chair.
