Upward communication among organizational members at the same level can facilitate task coordination, provide a means of sharing information, provide a formal channel of communication for problem-solving, and facilitate mutual support for staff involved. true or false?

True.

Explanation: Upward communication proves to be effective in organizations in all levels of the hierarchy. It benefits every part of the organization, from upper levels to lower ones.

For instance, employees can voice their concerns, ideas and requirements. This is helpful for top managers as well, because it helps them to acknowledge the needs of their employees.

Upward communication provides a means of sharing information, as well as a formal channel of communication for problem solving.

if interdependence implies a two-way dependence, and if each partner is equally dependent on the other for success, then there is an equal commitment to the making the partnership successful. the advantage is sustainability of the relationship, the disadvantage is that decisions are "democratic" and therefore may take longer to reach and more likely to be a compromise (which is not always the best solution). as the interdependence moves away from equality, the decisions become more influenced by the more independent partner. in the extreme the relationship becomes more dictatorial and more like "master-slave". generally the relationship has less commitment in both directions and is more likely to be temporary.

if one generalizes (and one shouldn't), equity partnerships, which is probably what is implied by interdependence, can be slow to progress or change but durable. the extreme alternative, independent-dependent partnerships tend to be efficient but more fragile.

hope this but you will have to site your own evidence. : )
