Communication Climate at the Workplace
The communication climate at Digital Prints is supportive. This is mainly because the workplace is warm, supportive, and open. A supportive climate is encouraging to the subordinates as compared to the defensive climate that puts an individual on the guard. It is easy for an employee to talk to each other and understand one another. With an open exchange of ideas and everyone is open to listening and discussing projects it is easy for the employees to get work done. Employees are allowed to test out their ideas and the management is more accommodative. This support has been beneficial to the employees in terms of being open and sharing their perceptions. Communication at the workplace is supportive in that employees will respond to emails promptly and they will listen to one another without interruption (Mohammed & Hussein, 2008). The viewpoints of each other are considered and there is honest disagreement. Digital Prints has prided itself in allowing and encouraging its employees to be proactive and have cordial interactions with each other. The management has excellently managed to create an environment of collaboration. Work schedules are aimed at promoting interactions between employees. Employees feel more at home when they are at the office and they can openly hold conversations with each other. This aligns well with the results of our Communication Climate Inventory.
Supportive communication climates affect motivation and organizational/team commitment...
Using these six dimensions to motivate the employees too. With a supportive communication climate, there is clarity and the employees know what they are required to do at any given time. Employees are also encouraged to ask questions in case they do not understand or if something is not clear. Employees are given goals that are challenging yet attainable and the responsible employees are given the authority to accomplish these tasks. Supportive climates do not have unnecessary rules, which can be demotivating for the employees. Too many rules and policies can be limiting to employees and they do not encourage them in any way (Ntoumanis, Quested, Reeve, & Cheon, 2017). Employees who are able to interact with each other openly and can hold conversations with one another without fearing that management will frown upon such communication will be motivated to work hard. Motivation is also achieved with clear responsibilities and straightforwardness. When there are no hidden agendas, employees are more willing to work and they will put in more effort to achieve the goals of the organization. Supportive communication climates encourage interactions with managers, subordinates, and co-workers via formal and informal communication channels like training sessions, team meetings, newsletter, and social events, which demonstrate agreement with organizational values. Employees have job satisfaction and are committed to the organization.

The change, to improve the way one manages conflict, needs to come from a deeper place and that is the most important lesson I take from this chapter.
