Communication is beyond mere interaction between individuals and group in the business organizational settings.

Inferential statistics was used to reach conclusions and make generalizations about the study objectives based on data collected from the sample. The result of this study statistically shows that there is a significant correlation between communication channels available for effective communication and employee performance. Also, it revealed that there is a significant correlation between possible challenges of effective communication and employee performance. There should be development of effective communication channels/medium that will enable management to relate and communicate business objectives and strategies to achieve said objectives in expected time.
