Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Routine messages are those that convey information that is already known or agreed upon, and do not require any significant analysis or interpretation. Data or statistics that are already understood by managers would fall into this category. Nonroutine messages, on the other hand, involve new or unexpected information that requires analysis, interpretation, or action, while instant messages are those that require immediate attention or response. Grapevine messages refer to informal, unofficial communication channels, while qualitative messages involve subjective or descriptive information rather than hard data or statistics.
