7. Introduction:
 Communication is the process whereby information is
imparted by a sender to a receiver via a medium. The
biggest task of any work system is to create an effective
communication system. Communication strategy can be
defined as showing attention to planning, an
understanding of the situation, an ability to carry out the
work, and clear identification of the goal. In everyday
situation also each academic institution and non-academic
institution make communication strategy to sort out the
things to do easily without any hindrances. In the same
way how the tour-in-charge planned ahead to success the
students’ study tour on time. That is why the investigator (
tour-in-charge) wrote the successful completion of study
tour on the basis of effective communication strategy.
