In today’s business world, organizational structures have become more complex with the effect of global, social, economic, and technological developments, and with the increasing need for division of labor and labor, all employees in organizations need to establish close relationships with each other and continue their activities in harmony. In this context, organizational communication has become a vital phenomenon for organizations to achieve organizational goals successfully. Leadership is considered the most important organizational variable for the effective management of the organizational communication process. The role and importance of leadership and leaders in the effective organizational communication process is an undeniable fact. Leaders play important roles in the effective management of organizational communication with their identity as a good communicator as well as many of their characteristics. In this study, it is aimed to examine the relationship between organizational communication and leadership and to reveal the interaction areas according to the basic dimensions of both concepts. First, the conceptual framework for organizational communication and leadership is presented in the study, and then the relational context is explained. Within the framework of the findings and evaluations revealed in the study, it is understood that leadership variables, which play a key role in the effective management of organizational communication and organizational communication, are complementary to each other, and the successful continuation of the communication process in organizations can be achieved through leader activity interaction.

Most historians of the field place the beginning of the modern discipline in the middle of the twentieth century. Redding and Tompkins (1988) provide a typical recounting of this history in discussing three overlapping formative phases. The first, from 1900 and 1950, is the “era of preparation.” During this period, concerns revolved around skills-based training that would achieve “effective” communication in organizations. The second phase (1940–1970), the “era of identification and consolidation,” was marked by an emphasis on the scientific method. with empirical attention focused on supervisor–subordinate relationships, employee satisfaction, and group decision-making. Redding and Tompkins argue that organizational communication reached the third era (“era of maturity and innovation”) in the 1970s. At this point, organizational communication was recognized as an established discipline with large divisions in the ICA (International Communication Association) and the National Communication Association (NCA) in the US, graduate programs across the globe, and scholarship represented in disciplinary and interdisciplinary outlets, as well as specialized journals such as Management Communication Quarterly.

In recent decades, the discipline has been marked by several major intellectual shifts and conceptual debates. Thus, organizational communication is now an eclectic discipline in terms of theory and method. Three important metatheoretical strands are now prevalent in organizational communication. Following Corman and Poole (2000), these strands are labeled ‘post-positivist,’ ‘interpretive,’ and ‘critical.’

The post-positivist approach was dominant as organizational communication reached maturity in the 1970s. The ontological focus was a realist conception of both ‘organization’ and ‘communication’ – organizations were seen as ‘containers’ within which people worked and communication followed prescribed routes and included defined content. Early examples of post-positivist research included topics such as supervisor–subordinate communication, information flow, feedback, communication climate, and communication networks. Post-positivist scholars today consider crucial questions of organizing in the late modern and postmodern world, including communication and decision-making technologies, globalization, nonprofit organizations, and self-organizing systems.

During the 1970s and 1980s, many organizational communication scholars began to reject realist conceptions of organizations and communication and turn away from positivistic epistemological assumptions and scientific research methods. Within organizational communication, the interpretive turn (Putnam and Pacanowsky 1983). The intellectual roots of the interpretive turn in organizational communication can be found in movements such as symbolic interactionism, hermeneutics, phenomenology, and ethnomethodology. This approach is marked by a social constructionist ontology and epistemologies that emphasize the relationship between the knower and the known and the value of emergent forms of knowledge. Instead of following the ‘container’ metaphor, interpretive scholars considered the role of communication in processes of organizing and sense-making (Weick 1979); scholars shifted from a mechanistic view to a constitutive view of oganizing and communicating (Putnam & Nicotera 2009).

During the same time period as the interpretive turn, many scholars were also moving toward a critical approach in which organizations were viewed as systems of power and control. In organizational communication, critical scholarship can be traced to formative influences including Karl Marx, Frankfurt School critics, Louis Althusser, Antonio Gramsci, Jürgen Habermas, Michel Foucault, and Anthony Giddens. The turn to critical scholarship involved analyzing organizations as ‘sites of oppression,’ considering the discursive construction of managerial interests, examining how workers are complicit in processes of alienation, and highlighting processes of resistance. Critical organizational communication scholars’ concern with praxis has led to the scholarship considering alternative organizational forms, participatory practices, and opportunities for employee dissent.

With the critical turn also came a move to feminist scholarship (Ashcraft & Mumby 2004). This research has roots in both the critical theory and the political activism at the heart of feminism. Feminist scholarship did not gain a foothold in the discipline until the 1990s, though there had been earlier studies of gender and biological sex in organizational communication processes. In recent decades, feminist scholarship has included the public/private divide, feminist ways of organizing, emotionality in the workplace, feminist approaches to conflict, and embodied organizational experience with the late twentieth century also marked the emergence of postmodern theorizing that differentiates organizations and communication in the modern epoch (e.g., centralized authority, rationality, standardization) from the postmodern epoch (e.g., lateral relationships, consensus-based control, interactivity, and change).

Contemporary Frames and Research Topics

Putnam et al. (1996) provide a helpful framework that considers the metaphors of communication and organization. In the ‘conduit metaphor’ communication is seen as transmission that occurs within the container of the organization. Research in this tradition considers formal and informal communication flow, adoption of communication technology, and information load.In the ‘lens metaphor’ approach, communication is a filtering process and the organization is the eye. This metaphor highlights the possibility of distortion and the importance of message reception. The ‘linkage metaphor’ shifts emphasis to the connections among individuals and organizations including communication networks, patterns, and structures. The ‘performance metaphor’ considers organizations as emerging from coordinated actions (processes including storytelling and organizational image). The ‘symbol metaphor’ sees communication as a process of representation through which the organizational world is made meaningful and includes scholarship in organizational culture and socialization. The ‘voice metaphor’ considers how organizational voices are expressed or suppressed through processes including ideology, hegemony, democratization, and cultural difference. Finally, ‘discourse metaphor’ sees communication as a conversation, as collective action, and as dialogue.
