Abstract: Abstract This study makes a first attempt to investigate the influence of leadership communication on internal integration when employees maintain relationships with multiple managers in different functional areas of an organization. In a cross-sectional survey, 388 employees in German theatres assessed perceived internal integration between artistic, technical and administration areas as well as perceived leadership communication quality (PLCQ) with managers in each area which they had a relation with. Results show that the better and the more consistent employees perceive the communication of managers from the different areas, the more employees will perceive internal integration across the areas.
