contents Leading through Meaning: Elements of a Communication Process. Budd, John M. Communication (Thought Transfer) Language Processing Leadership Qualities Library Administration Models Organizational Communication This paper presents a simple model of the communication process and discusses the transmission of meaning from the sender to the receiver of a message. The model is applied to the library organization, and problems which may arise from various interpretations of messages are considered. The relationship between information and meaning is then examined. The communication of meaning and the transformation of the ideation inherent in the members of the organization into an ideology to be shared are identified as leadership roles. Coincident and equifinal meanings and their roles in organizational communication are explored, and it is concluded that success in a library depends on the initiative of meaning as both a function and a definition of leadership.
