In any organization, operations are liable to become chaotic if the right decisions are not taken at the right time. Ideally, we expect things to happen by clockwork precision, but unfortunately, that is not always the case and one has to deal with unexpected contingencies. Sometimes blunders in communication occur which prove to be very costly to an organization – it could lead to a loss of precious customers which directly impacts the bottom-line profits. Inaccurate business choices could also lead to a lack of internal coordination between the various departments of a firm.
