Abstract

The purpose of this research was to look for ways to improve the communication in Family Readiness Groups (FRGs) as a way to help of the overall effectiveness of the FRG. This research focused on assessing a range of communication styles that the FRG membership identified as desirable communicative attributes of an FRG leader. Further the research also identifies a range of communication media currently being used by the FRG membership and which types of media are appropriate in varied contexts. The FRG leader can then create a communication strategy based on this information to integrate into their leadership role. Using De Vries et al. (2011) Communication Style Inventory and a modes of communication questionnaire, preferences in communication style and use of media were identified. Results and implications are further discussed in this research.
