Summary Introduction
To determine:
The way one feels when conversing with a friend or colleague.
Introduction:
Conversing with a friend or colleague is a simple day-to-day activity. It need not be an activity to be tensed or nervous about as the person we speak to is someone we already know and have met. As there is only one person to focus on and not many people at the same time, conversing with one such person can be deemed effortless. The person can also be assured that they will be conversing with the friend or colleague about a topic that they share in common. Therefore, it is not necessary to worry about not having anything in common.

to get early warning signals that would not be filtered or redirected through the formal chain of command
Mukherji found that many employees who used the open-door policy had been with the company for years
and were comfortable talking to the president, Sometimes messages came through about inadequate
policies and procedures. Mukherji would raise these issues and explain any changes at the next senior
managers meeting. The most difficult complaints to handle were those from people who were not getting
along with their bosses.
