Förslag till vidare forskning

Avdelningen i studien arbetar mycket med kommunikationen och relationen till medarbetarna. Relationerna mellan medarbetarna inom avdelningen var otroligt viktiga för att få en välfungerande kommunikation enligt empirin. Intressant för vidare studier vore att undersöka huruvida det finns ett samband mellan den upplevda relationen inom ett företag och de finansiella prestationerna. Har den upplevda relationen en påverkan på ett företags finansiella prestationer och till vilken grad?
