Methodology: The study applied systematic literature review (SLR) or systematic research synthesis (SRS) as the approach to gather data, analyse to address the research query. The study method embraces the definition of SLR by Rousseau et al. (2008). The conditions for literature search electronically was done through multiple journal sites. The gathered published material dated between 1961-2018.
Main Findings: The paper put forward three propositions to establish the argument for organisational communication. The findings show that there is no definitive agreement what constitute organisational communication as it is given many names like internal communication, employee communication, corporate communication etc. There is total lack of structural approach to organisational communication.
Applications of this study: The paper refocuses organisational communication towards a three-tier approach and challenges leadership to communicate in tandem with managerial roles as purported by Mintzberg in order to give prominence to organisational communication.
Novelty/Originality of this study: The paper introduces three new dimensions as measures of organisational communication with a new perspective on leadership communication, where Mintzberg’s managerial roles were used as reference for leadership communication responsibility which is missing in today’s organisation. The new measures of organisational communication are leadership level, functional and operational level
Analisis Perilaku Keputusan Konsumen dalam Pembelian Produk Patung Kayu pada Toko Kerajinan (Art Shop) Kecamatan Sukawati, Gianyar, Bali
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui: (1) faktor yang dipertimbangkan oleh konsumen dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu; (2) Faktor yang mempunyai pengaruh paling dominan dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu. Lokasi penelitian ditetapkan di Kecamatan Gianyar Bali karena merupakan pusat industri kerajinan patung kayu di Bali dan mempunyai pasar sampai ke luar negeri. Toko kerajinan (art shop) patung kayu di Kecamatan Sukawati jumlah cukup banyak dan terus berkembang, toko kerajinan (art shop) letaknya terpusat, berjejer dan saling berdekatan. Kecamatan Sukawati terletak dalam jalur utama ke arah timur seperti obyek wisata Ubud, Istana Presiden Tampak Siring, Goa Gajah, Kintamani serta obyek wisata lainnya. Yang menjadi populasi dalam penelitian ini meliputi seluruh wisatawan mancanegara yang berkunjung pada toko kerajinan (art shop) patung kayu di Kecamatan Sukawati Gianyar Bali. Penentuan sampel dalam penelitian ini menggunakan metode accidental sampling yaitu teknik pengambilan sampel berdasarkan kebetulan, dengan demikian siapa saja yang kebetulan bertemu dengan peneliti dan memenuhi syarat yang ditentukan dapat digunakan sebagai responden. Sedangkan jumlah sampel yang diperlukan jika dianalisis dengan menggunakan analisis faktor adalah paling sedikit 4 atau 5 kali jumlah variabel yang diteliti. Karena jumlah variabel yang diteliti sebanyak 20 maka sampel ditetapkan 100 responden. Alat analisa yang digunakan adalah analisis faktor untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang dipertimbangkan konsumen dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu dan analisis regresi berganda untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempunyai pengaruh paling dominan dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 20 variabel dapat direduksi menjadi 17 variabel yang tersebar dalam 6 faktor. Tiga variabel dikeluarkan dari model karena tidak memenuhi kriteria MSA > 0,5 yaitu variabel potongan harga (X12) dan dua variabel tidak memenuhi kriteria, dimana communality <0,5 yaitu variabel saluran distribusi (X16) dan variabel sarana lain (X20). Dari uji analisis faktor diperoleh hasil bahwa dari 17 variabel yang ditahan di dalam model dan mengelompokkan ke dalam 6 faktor merupakan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku konsumen dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu. Faktor-faktor tersebut adalah faktor harga dengan eigen value 4,63653, faktor promosi dengan eigen value 3,15352, faktor referensi dengan eigen value 1,87740, faktor produk dengan eigen value 1,58539, faktor budaya dengan eigen value 1,34874 dan faktor kondisi fisik dengan eigen value 1,10984.

Hal ini terlihat dari nilai koefisien determinasi (R2) sebesar 0,74504. Model ini juga digunakan untuk mengetahui faktor mana yang berpengaruh paling dominan di antara 6 faktor yang mempengaruhi konsumen dalam keputusan pembelian produk patung kayu. Dari hasil regresi dapat diketahui bahwa dari enam faktor sebagai variabel independen yang dianalisis, secara simultan berpengaruh terhadap keputusan pembelian konsumen. Hal ini ditunjukkan oleh Fhitung=45,29365 > Ftabel =2,29 signifikan pada a=5%. Kemudian dari enam faktor tersebut dapat pula diketahui bahwa faktor produk merupakan faktor yang berpengaruh paling dominan dalam keputusan pembelian. Hal ini ditunjukkan dalam nilai thitung sebesar 8,594 (tertinggi di antara enam faktor yang mempengaruhi konsumen)
