Key Issues Highlighted This case is focused upon the key issues related to the communication channel existing in the department with resp ect to the retrieval of information available with the receptionist and dependency on the receptionist for accessing the information that is present with her.The issues pertain to the information which is collected by the receptionist. This information is provided by the people and could either be a complaint or a call for help or intimation about any emergency situations. It could alike include person-to-personised calls or messages for the people in the department. This information could be accessed only when the receptionist was present and the conveyance of the information over the telephone line meant that the line was kept busy and this was responsible for the callers to deter from providing information which could prove useful for the department.Moreover the personnel often wanted to access the information after their handicraft hours were over, but this was not made possible as the absence of the receptionist meant that data could not be retrieved until such time till t he receptionist returned. These issues pertaining to communication within the department are highlighted in this case study * Communication channel which existed in the department. * Various flaws associated in the existing communication channel. * Effect of the ineffective communication channel on the administration of the department. Identifying the reasons for the problems which are evident in the communication channel. Key Issues Analysis 1. Communication reassign The Communication Channel prevailing in The General Department of Administrative Affairs of the Department of Police is the combination of verbal and non verbal communication system. The communication system is the system which includes the interaction between the people. The communication is established between the vector and the receiver by making use of the sound and language to convey the message to the receiver. The communication is used to express the ideas, desires, concepts and requirements.The verbal commu nication is in that respectfrom signifi mucklet for the exchange of expressions and gestures between two or more persons. The verbal communication system is an old and traditional system for communication in public administrative organization where one hit receptionist is responsible for the transferring of calls and messages along with the retrieval of information. The system is not spirited enough to cope up with the demands of the modern scenario of the public administrations, especially the Police Department where the number of work force is increasing day by day, thus resulting in the increase of the administration activities.Today, the communication systems widespread in the administrations are faster and easier and are modern and technical systems mostly referred as the non verbal communication system. (Hanes, 2010) 2. Failure of the Communication System There are various flaws associated with the current communication system or channel prevailing in the department result ing in the also-ran of the system and giving birth to number of problems in the department when the messages and calls are transferred from the receptionist to the concerned officer in the department. They are * Misunderstandings. Different Perceptions of the People * idle Communication Techniques * Language Barriers * Subjective Opinions of the Persons (Hanes, Problems in Communication , 2010) 3. Effect of the Communication System The communication system prevailing in The General Department of Administrative Affairs fails to clinch the success as the system or the channel is centralized and outmoded. The communication system moves around one single receptionist who is responsible to transfer the calls and messages to the officers in their respective departments.She was also made responsible to retrieve the messages in the absence of any receiver. This is an old and slow puzzle out of communication giving room for number of mistakes. This resulted in the miscommunication of th e data and information and therefore resulting in the misappropriation of tasks and responsibilities. At times, this fallout in the call down and admonishments to the officers from the Deputy General of the department. 4. Reasons for the flaws in Communication Channel There can be many reasons that affect the communication system in the organization.With theatrical role to the case study of the public administrations Dubai Police Department, there is a centralized communication system. The department makes use of both the verbal as well as the non verbal communication system. They made use of the internet, fax machines, printers, telephones, e-mails as the mode of communication in the department. The working of the centralized communication system revolves around the receptionist of the department who is made responsible for the transfer of calls, messages to the receiver. This is the major fault in the department.Depending on a single receptionist for carrying out the communicat ion system will undoubtedly give room for the mistakes and human errors. The errors and defects would have generated in the communication system certainly. Steps Taken to take root the Problem The Deputy of The General Department of Administrative Affairs came to the action plan to resolve the problem of communication system or channel in the department. The Deputy had taken step of installing the new and contemporary digital system for communication in the department.The step was taken by the Deputy as the Department was grappling around the problems of communication. The new digital system was installed in the department with the aim to eradicate all the problems associated with the prevailing communication channel. The receptionist was made the communication officer of the department and was assigned the responsibility of managing the new communication system. The communication officer who was the former receptionist of the department was also accountable to the higher uthoritie s to provide them the feedback of the new system by tutelage the review on the system. The new system installed ensured the faster and effective communication across the department of the administrative affairs under the police department of Dubai. Benefits & Drawbacks Eventually, the new digital system was installed in the department. This resulted in the eradication of the problems due to the different benefits associated with it and they are (a) New and modern system (b) Communication is possible in a large workforce c) Easy to use (d) betting and prompt to use (e) Offers indifferent unique add on. Besides this, there are also some drawbacks associated with the Digital System and that pertains to the Information immensity which is passed between the receiver and the sender or any and they are as follows (a) Lengthy Conversations are difficult with the new system. (b) The Particulars of the messages are missed. (c) Lot of Repetitions is required. (d) slight influential and c annot be used everywhere in all the functions of the department. e) non everybody in the organization prefers to communicate via digital system of communication.

Communication is a polar aspect of public administration and the evaluation of the case of the Dubai Police Department in its Department of Administrative Affairs and proved useful in the examination of this aspect of administration and its implications in real time scenarios.The discussions in the case study has proved that how much a proper and imperious communication channel is required in any of the organization to bring to pass various functions in the department. The Case had also focused upon how much is the operational effectiveness of any organization is affecting due to the improper functioning of only one of the system in the organization. Indeed, the Case Study aimed to expose the significance of the proper and friendly communication channels entails in any of the public administration. RecommendationsWith reference to the case study, I would like to give my personal recommendations for the improvement of the communication channels and programs in the organization. Several Steps can be taken by the unexclusive Administration Authorities to improve the communication systems in the department. The Recommendations pertaining to the Department of Police are as follows * An nonionised System for Communication should be followed which should be completely formal system. This will provide a solution for the structural and operational problems with respect to the operational concerns. All the elements of the Communication mix should be properly managed during the implementation of the programs and systems. A certain problem is recognized which is referred as the Time Wasting Potential. Thi s should be eradicated by making use of SOP Program used for the phylogeny of the overall communication systems and programs in the organization. (Kuhne, 2004) In addition to the above recommendations, I would like to suggest the communication officer of the Dubai Police Department to append to the upgraded versions of the digital systems of the communication system once the department gets used to it.This will ensure more upgraded and advanced services to carry out the communication services across the department. It provides unique services like (a) VOIP telephone systems (b) credit of the Factory Certified Technicians (c) Loud Speaker Paging System (d) unlike Teleworker Set up (e) Relocation Services (f) Adds, moves and changes Other departments in the Public Administration of Dubai can also make use of such modes of systems of communication within their departments.
