Question
What do you mean by ‘Gossip Chain’ of grapevine communication?
Solution
In this form of communication, a person communicates something to a number of persons during the course of a gossip. A particular person in an organisation knows something specific that happens to be interesting. He tells this thing to all the members of his group and some other people also. Normally such an information is not related to the job. For example, two employees of the organisation are going in for a love marriage and some particular person has got this information, he passes on this information to a large number of people. Gossip chain has been shown in diagram. In this diagram, Mr ‘A’ is passing on his information to B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, etc.
