Communication
Functional Standards Common Glossary, published by the Cabinet Office, suggests that communication: ‘…includes announcements, media management, co-ordinated communication activities (including social media, branded campaigns, external affairs and stakeholder management) aimed to support the organisation’s policy and priority objectives. This includes external and internal audiences.’
In the construction industry, communication may also refer to Information and communications technology (ICT).
