Abstract:
This article investigates internal communication at DaimlerChrysler South Africa (DCSA) from a twoway
symmetrical model of internal communication and internal marketing perspective. Results show that,
for DCSA to improve effective internal communication and corporate efficiency, it needs to adjust its
corporate culture and nature of internal communication according to the principles of both two-way
symmetrical communication and internal marketing.
