Ran across the following report from the Partnership for Public Service:
"Effective communication from organizational leaders is needed to establish a transparent, positive work environment. There is a statistically significant correlation between effective workplace communication and employee job satisfaction,1 but communicating effectively and motivating employees is a challenge for many leaders.
In this Best Places to Work in the Federal Government® snapshot, the Partnership for Public Service and Deloitte considered three questions from the Office of Personnel Management’s (OPM) 2013 Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey to measure employee satisfaction with leadership communication in their agencies. The questions covered the communication of goals and priorities, the information provided to different work units and employee satisfaction with information they receive regarding what is taking place in the organization."
Well worth reading and filled with some great tips on improving leadership communication - Making An Impact Through Effective Leadership Communication

Interesting that government agencies have generally higher paid employees than the private sector, but substantially lower communication satisfaction scores. Also troubling that Homeland Security has the lowest score of any large govt. agency rating, and that rating has dropped significantly year over year. Looks like an opportunity to initiate a project to raise the metric.

I would be interested to learn if the analysis has been updated with 2015 data to see if the trends have reversed. Most concerning to me is the Homeland security scores - where you would think communication is paramount. In either case, it would be interesting to hear what projects have been carried out to improve the scores.

Dear Bill
Interesting this reflection on the theme: "Good Study on Effective Leadership Communication"
Thanks for sharing
Important point to remember:
"Low levels of employee satisfaction
with leadership communication go hand-in-hand with lower
employee satisfaction scores acrossthe-board. "
