Third Culture Building as a Communication Strategy to Compete with Addictive and Distracting Mobile Devices

Abstract

This paper describes how in contemporary life the mobile device distracts people from their work. The paper makes a comparison with civilian/commercial case studies, how mobile use impacts their productivity and how it is handled within those cases. Those studies form the input for a comparison on what communication theory is used to tackle the issue and how effective that strategy was. Finally, the paper discusses whether or not these strategies could be implemented in military society and provides advice and recommendation to leadership.
