Burke, R. J., & Wilcox, D. S.(Sep., 1969). Effects of Different Patterns and Degrees of Openness in Superior-Subordinate Communication on Subordinate Job Satisfaction*. The Academy of Management Journal, 12, 319-326.
-From the Academy of Management Journal the relationship of subordinate and superior are closely examined as it relates to organizational communication effectiveness. In this article authors Burke and Wilcox examine how the openness of superior and subordinate alike affect upward and downward communication within the organization. Burke and Wilcox suggest that the degree to which superiors are honest in communication increases job satisfaction and retention amongst employee's. Burke and Wilcox also state that the degree to which a subordinates honest and open communication is championed by an organization increases the efficacy of communication within the organizational structure.
However relevant the findings presented by Burke and Wilcox it still remains that the relationship is not tested against different hypothesis. No scrutiny is aimed at whether or not the way in which superiors communicate their expectations to subordinates is flawed or distorted by aspects others than variables that relate to job satisfaction i.e. self-preservation. Rather the emphasis is on whether or not the superior and subordinate alike feel as though they are able to communicate freely to the other party.
