what they are doing. Someone who enjoys their job will be much more productive than someone who is just trudging through the day doing what they are told. The most efficient organizations are those where individuals take personal pleasure in meeting the goals of the organization. The least efficient organizations are those where individuals don't really care anything about the organization's goals or what it is trying to achieve.

Communicating goals doesn't guarantee that your employees will be motivated and love what they do, but if you don't convey goals to your employees at all you can certainly guarantee that they won't be motivated because they won't know where they are going.

Communication is a very important skill for a leader to develop. Without good communication, it is unlikely that they will success. The thoughtful leader is constantly taking the pulse of his organization and looking at how what he said was received--constantly measuring how well people understood what he said and how well they are taking his words and converting them into appropriate action. Good communication doesn't happen on accident. It has to be developed and constantly refined. You have to constantly measure how effective your communication was and make sure it is achieving the desired results.
