Communication within an organization follows different directions, including downward, upward, and horizontal communication.

Key Points

  •  The communication between a superior and a subordinate is called Command communication because it primarily involves giving orders, instructions, and directives that the subordinate must follow.
  • This type of communication ensures discipline, clarity in responsibilities, and organizational efficiency.
  • Command communication is common in military, corporate, and administrative settings, where a clear hierarchy exists, and subordinates are expected to act according to instructions.

Hint

  •  Influence refers to persuasion rather than direct instructions.
  • Information is a general term and does not necessarily indicate authority-based communication.
  • Integrative communication focuses on coordination and teamwork rather than hierarchical instruction.

Hence, the correct answer is Command.
