Abstract
This study explores the impact of digital tools on business communication, focusing on key dimensions such as collaboration, employee satisfaction, productivity, and communication overload. Utilizing a survey methodology, data was collected from 100 respondents working in various sectors. The analysis involved multiple regression and robust regression techniques to examine the relationships between the independent variables (collaboration, employee satisfaction, productivity, and communication overload) and the dependent variable (efficiency). The results indicate that collaboration and employee satisfaction significantly enhance efficiency, while communication overload also shows a positive, albeit counterintuitive, impact on efficiency. Productivity, however, does not significantly influence efficiency in this context. These findings highlight the critical role of fostering collaborative environments and ensuring high levels of employee satisfaction to optimize business communication and overall efficiency. The study contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the nuanced effects of digital tools on business communication, offering practical insights for organizations seeking to leverage these tools for improved performance. Further research is recommended to explore the underlying mechanisms driving these relationships and to validate the findings across different organizational contexts.
