According to the research outcomes, communication effectiveness significantly influenced communication satisfaction and job performance, and communication satisfaction significantly influenced job performance. As organizational communication must be conducted through media that disseminate information, and different media have different communication effects, the relationship between communication effectiveness and job performance was completely mediated by communication satisfaction.
