PRELIMINARY
In an organization, organizational communication will describe the working atmosphere
of the organization or a number -sikap feelings and attitudes of people working in the
organization. In this research, organizational communication climate is a macro image,
abstract, and a combination of a global phenomenon called organizational communication
(Muhammad, 2007: 86-87). Research conducted Reeding (2010) show that the climate wider
communication of employee perceptions of the quality of relationships and communication
within the organization and the level of influence and involvement. Reeding also said that
communication organization is far more important than skill or technique - a mere
communication techniques - eye in creating an effective organization (Kriyantono 2009: 316).
This is the same as it did in the Regional Inspectorate who use communication for a variety of
purposes in accordance with the scope of work of the Regional Inspectorate.
Another factor that affects performance by Kriyantono (2009: 416) is the job
satisfaction of employees who are in the organization. Job satisfaction is a different response
from each employee, satisfaction becomes a response or one's response to a variety of work
environment it faces. Job satisfaction and positive communication will create the performance
of employees in an organization well. The organization is a relatively enduring quality of the
organization's internal environment experienced by members - members, affecting their
behavior and can be described in terms of the values of a set of specific characteristics of the
environment. In inspectorate, some employees are given the post of auditor to monitor and
evaluate the financial performance of local government. Communication happens to the auditor
komunukasi based on the type of work performed.
Job satisfaction affects the performance of employees arising from the combination of
various factors, including satisfaction with the work done, the salary received, the boss attitude
and behavior of colleagues. It is believed by many organizations as a major factor in the
inspectorate auditor job satisfaction, because there are some employees who feel that the
satisfaction of a job is obtained when they have completed the work assigned to him as a duty.
There are various factors that also influence strong enough in employee satisfaction as their
satisfaction with the accuracy of the information, satisfaction with one's ability to suggest
improvements, satisfaction with the efficiency of a wide - range of communication channels,
satisfaction with the quality of the media, satisfaction with the way communication coworker,
satisfaction with involvement in organizational communication as a whole. (Muhammad:
2007). Indicators used to measure job satisfaction according to Robbins (2007: 342) is
satisfaction with salary, satisfaction with the work itself, satisfaction with the superior attitude
and satisfaction with co-workers.
Object of this research is the auditor inspectorate Southeast Sulawesi province, because
in addition to their competence, integrity and accountability must be owned by the auditor, the
climate communication as it is important in any organization, it is very important given the
climate of the organization's communication describes the involvement of employees in
decision making, how how to involve subordinates in decision making, confidence building
within the organization is very important in supporting the performance Bastian (2006: 149).
Relative performance of the auditor, the job satisfaction in work is an important factor
which is always a concern to achieve the expected results of the work, because sometimes an
auditor is satisfied with the completion of jobs that is the main task. Similarly, the auditor
inspectorate Southeast Sulawesi province, a factor that makes the auditor is satisfied with his
job is when they are able to complete the inspection tasks assigned to them and are able to
achieve the target of annual reporting which tasks are important they are to perform the
examination Bastian (2006: 219).
Implementation of local government processes Inspectorate of Southeast Sulawesi
province currently consists of expert auditors, financial auditor with various educational
backgrounds and work experience levels. It is worthy to note that in Southeast Sulawesi
Provincial Inspectorate labor inspectors need pengkaderisasian or internal auditors who are
reliable in the field. The performance is carried by the auditor Inspectorate of Southeast
Sulawesi province is still a major concern, because there are many audit findings that are not
detected by the inspectorate officials as the internal auditor.
Measurement of the performance of the auditor needs to be done in order to know the
extent of achievement of performance or failure rate experienced so that the conditions in the
know we can make improvements in the future. To measure the performance of auditors, the
indicator used was the extent of the auditor's ability to discover and the ability to report the
results of the examination (Morgan, 1999: 24).
Performance is the picture of the overall goal of the activity or program / policy in
realizing the goals, objectives, mission, vision of the organization. Performance is a condition
that must be in the know and informed to certain parties so that it can be obtained information
about the level of achievement of an agency in connecting with the vision that the waistband of

2
an organization and to know the positive and negative effects an operational policies taken
(Mangkunagara 2005 : 77).
Based on internal audit assignments as a government auditor, the Southeast Sulawesi
provincial inspectorate needs to be supported by the performance of which is the ability to
discover and the ability to report the findings of auditors. Auditors have an important role in
carrying out the examination function. Therefore, according to Mahmudi. (2007: 102) an
auditor should be able to develop a climate of good communication with his superiors and the
unit where he will check and must have satisfaction on the job with no pressure from any side.

LITERATURE REVIEW
1. Concept Communications
Communication is a basic human activity to communicate, humans can relate to each
other better in everyday life, at work, in society or in any human being. No human being will
not be involved in communication. According to Smith & Williamson in pace, 2006: 31.
Technically, this means that one can not avoid to show the message, because the message is a
show that runs (Pace, 2006: 38).
Hovland, Janis and Kelley in Muhammad (2007: 2), says that communication is the
process by the which an individual transmits stimully (usually verbal) to modify the behavior of
other individuals. With other words communication is an individual process that usually sends
stimulus in verbal form to change the behavior of others.

3
Said signal means that the signal in the form of verbal and nonverbal which has certain
rules. With the existence of this rule makes the person who receives the signal that has to know
the rules will be able to understand the intent of the signal it receives Thus, in communicating
the necessary similarity of meaning between the communicator and the communicant, because
if there is a similarity of meaning, communication will take place properly. Obviously if
someone understands something that is otherwise others to him, there is a communicative
relationship.
This communication process is happening to the communicator and the
communicant. When the communicator intends to convey a message to the communicant,
then within him there was a process, namely packaging the content of messages and
symbols. The contents of the message in general is mind, while generally the language
symbol (Elvinaro: 31). The message is transmitted to the communicant. If the
communicant understand the message or thought communicator, the communication
occurs. Conversely when the communicants do not understand, then the communication
did not happen.
In this communication process can be classified in two stages, namely as follows:
a. The primary communication process
The primary communication process is the process of delivering one's thoughts or
feelings to others by using symbols (symbols) as a medium or channel. As for the
symbol as the primary media in the process of communication is language, gestures,
images, colors and other things that can directly translate thoughts or feelings
communicator to the communicant. In the primary communication process is the most
widely used language, because language can translate one's thoughts to others, whether
it is in the form of ideas, ideas, information or opinions.
b. The communication process is secondary
Secondary communication process is the process of delivering a message by the
communicator to the communicant by using the means as a second media after the
emblem used as the first media. The importance of the role of the media, the secondary
media in the communication process due to its efficiency in achieving the goals of the
communicant, because the communication process this secondary is a connection from
the primary communication, then in arranging symbols to formulate the content of the
message communication, communicators, must take into account the characteristics or
properties of the medium used. The secondary communication process in reaching the
targets by using the mass media that have a wide circulation and has a simultaneity.
Such as newspapers, broadcast television, radio, film, leaflet, brochure, and others.
c. The communication process in a linear fashion
The term implies a straight linear. In the context of communication, in a linear process
is the process of delivering a message by the communicator to the communicant as a
terminal point. This linear communication takes place both in situations of face-to-face
communication (face-to-face communication) and in situations of mediated
communication (mediated communication). The process generally takes place on a
linear communication mediated communication, but communication by telephone.
Communication by phone lasted almost never linear, but rather dialogue, question and
answer in the form of conversation.
d. The communication process circularly
In the context of the intended communication with the circular process is the feedback
or feedback that the flow of the communicant to the communicator. Therefore, there are
times when the feed back flow from communicant to the communicator that is a
response or communicant response to messages received from the communicator.
The concept of feedback in the communication process is important because with the
feedback communicators know whether it succeeded or failed communication, in other

4
words whether the feedback is positive or negative. When the communicator is worth
happy positive, otherwise if negative become a problem, so that communicators should
be repeated with improvements in communication style to generate positive feedback.
2. The concept of Organizational Communication
The organization is a rational coordination of activities of a number of people to achieve
some common goal through the division of labor and functions through a hierarchy of authority
and responsibility and the organization is structured relations system that coordinates the efforts
of a group of people to achieve certain goals. The organization is an open system form of
activity which is coordinated by two or more people to achieve a common goal. From that
sense, it can be concluded that the organization is a system that coordinates the activities - the
activities and achieve a common goal or common purpose. (Nurudin. (2007: 23).
Communication and organizational success is related, improve organizational
communication means improving the organization. An ideal organization formed from
elements of universal, universal elements can be found and used to transform an organization,
these elements related to the expected results of organization and communication is one of the
elements of the organization. The main purpose of the study is to improve organizational
communication.
Organizational communication studies is the study of how people perceive the object -
also the study of the object - the object itself Pace & Faules, (2005: 3). The important thing is
that people - different people behave in a way - a different way to what they deem worthy
object was observed, and the difference - the difference is based on how people - one thinks of
the object - it. A social object is simply an object that has meaning to a collectivity or
demanding action by humans.
Organizational communication is a discipline that studies can take a number of legal
and beneficial direction (Pace & Faules, 2005: 25). Functionally organizational communication
can be defined as the performance and interpretation of messages between units -
communication units that are part of a particular organization. An organization composed of
units of communication in relationships - hierarchical relationships between one another and
functioning in an environment (Pace & Faules, 2005: 31).
Redding said that communication organization is sending and receiving information in
complex organizations. And according to Katz and Kahn that organizational communication is
the flow of information, exchange of information and transfer of meaning in an organization
(Muhammad, 2007: 65).
Communication organization is as organizational communications is the process of
creating and exchanging messages within a network of interdependent relationships to cope
with environmental uncertainty. Or in other words organizational communication is the process
of creating and exchanging messages in a network of relationships that depend on each other to
cope with an uncertain environment or constantly change - change (Wiryanto, 2007: 67).

3. The concept of Job Satisfaction


There are several opinions regarding the definition of job satisfaction, is as beriku :
a) According Marihot Hariandja TE (2005: 290), is the extent to which individuals feel
positively / negatively various factors / dimensions of the tasks in the job. According to the
AA Anwar King Mangkunegara (2007: 117), job satisfaction is a feeling that support / do
not support self-employees associated with work and with her condition.
b) According to L. Mathis and John H. Jackson's translation Sadeli & Bayu Jimmy Butler
(2011: 98) says that job satisfaction is a positive emotional state of a person evaluate work
experience. According Veithzal Rival (2010: 475) job satisfaction is an evaluation that
describes someone for feeling happy attitude / not happy, satisfied / dissatisfied at work.
One model theories related to job satisfaction, namely the theory advanced by Edi
Junaedi 2006 : 66), known as equity theory models / theories of equality. The point of this

5
theory to explain the satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the payment of the difference between
the amount received by the number of perceived by other employees is a major cause of
dissatisfaction. For that there are basically 3 levels employee, that is :
a) Meet the basic needs of employees.
b) Meet employee expectations such that it is impossible to move to another place.
c) Fulfilling the desire of employees to get more than what was expected.
According Veithzal Rival (2004 : 480), the theory of job satisfaction, among others:
a. Theory of Inequality (Discrepancy Theory)
This theory measure job satisfaction a person by calculating the difference between
something that is supposed to perceived reality. So when it acquired exceeds receives
satisfaction then people will be satisfied again, so that there is a discrepancy, but a
positive discrepancy. Job satisfaction a person depends on the difference between
something that is considered to be obtained with what was achieved.
b. Theory of Justice (Equety Theory)
This theory suggests that people will feel satisfied / dissatisfied, depending on the
presence / absence of justice (equity) in a system, especially a working system.
According to this theory the main component in the theory of justice is input, results,
justice and injustice. The input is a valuable factor for employees who are considered to
support such work, education, experience, skills, the number of tasks and tools /
equipment used to carry out the job. The result is something that is considered valuable
by an employee obtained from his work, such as: wages / salaries, fringe benefits,
symbol, status, recognition, and the opportunity to succeed or self-actualization.
c. Theory 2 factors (Two Factor Theory)
According to this theory of job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction that is a different
matter. Satisfaction and dissatisfaction is not the variable that continue. This theory
shows the characteristics of the work into 2 groups: satisfieas / motivator &
dissatisfieas. Satisfieas are the factors / situations that are needed as a source is needed.
Job satisfaction consisting of interesting work, full of challenges, there are opportunities
to excel, and the opportunity to earn the award. The fulfillment of these factors will lead
to satisfaction, but the non-fulfillment of these factors does not always lead to
dissatisfaction. Dissatisfieas (Hegein Factor) are factors that become a source of
dissatisfaction which consists of salary / wage control, the relationship between the
person, the working conditions and status.
According to Sedarmayanti 2007 : 291), the factors that influence job satisfaction are as
follows:
a) Salary. ie the amount of payments received by a person as a result of the
implementation of the work is in accordance with the needs and perceived as fair.
b) The job itself. The contents of the work carried out that someone does have elements
that satisfy
c) Co-worker. ie a friend - a friend to whom one will have to interact in the execution of
one's work colleagues can feel very pleasant / unpleasant.
d) Tops. ie someone who is constantly giving orders / instructions in the execution of
work. How - how employers can not be fun for someone fun and it can affect job
satisfaction.
e) Promotion. namely the possibility of a person can evolve through a promotion. A
person can feel a high possibility to be promoted / not. Promotion process less open,
this may also affect the level of employee satisfaction.
f) Work environment. namely Physical & Psychological Environment. To improve
employee satisfaction, companies must respond to the needs of employees and this
again has indirectly done on various human resource management activities as

6
described earlier. However, other measures still need to be done in a manner known to
improve the quality of working life.
4. The concept of Employee Performance
Performance is the result of work accomplished by an employee in carrying out its duties
and responsibilities. Based on the decision of the administrative institutions of the Republic of
Indonesia No. 239 / IX / 6 / 8/2003, the performance is an overview of the extent to which the
success / failure of the implementation of the duties and functions of an entity. The
performance of government agencies is an overview of the level of achievement of the target or
the aim of the government agency that meneidentifikasikan successes and failures in the
implementation of activities in accordance with programs and policies that have been set (LAN
2003).
Term performance of the English word is 'performance'. According to (Ulum, Ihyaul.
2009). Performance or performance is the behavior of someone who is directly connected with
the activities of the work, where the task achievement task the term comes from the thinking
activities required by the worker. But some experts say the definition of performance as
follows:
a) According to Bambang Kusriyanto in Anwar King Mangkunegara (2005: 9) "The
performance is a comparison of the results achieved with the participation of labor per
unit of time (usually an hour)." Meanwhile, according to Faustino Cardosa Gomes in
AA Anwar King Mangkunegara, (2005: 9) "the definition of performance as an
expression such as output, efficiency and effectiveness is often associated with
productivity."
b) According to Anwar King Mangkunegara (2005: 9) itself that the performance is the
result of the quality and quantity of work achieved by a person in performing their
duties in accordance with the responsibilities given to him. Therefore it can be
concluded that the performance of Human Resources is the work performance or work
(output) of both quality and quantity of human resources achievable per unit time period
in performing its duties in accordance with the responsibilities given to him.
c) Robbinson 2006: 99 Administration of the Republic of Indonesia No. 239 / IX /
6/8/2003 defines performance as a result of work related to organizational objectives
such as quality, efficient and more work effectiveness criteria. In addition, the
performance is also defined as the level of an individual needs as expectations on the
work he does. Any hopes of each individual is assessed based on roles. If the role
played by an individual is unknown or appears faint, then each individual will know
exactly what he expects.
Some definitions of performance measurement is based on expert opinion as follows
According to Anwar King Mangkunegara 2005: 9, performance is defined as the work in
quality and quantity achieved by an employee in performing their duties in accordance with the
responsibilities given to him.
