description This study researched the relationship between information usefulness and workplace cohesion in organizations. Information uniqueness when it is not properly established in the workplace especially when data is not distinct and not easily duplicated. Research objectives focused on ascertaining the role of dimensions such as information distinctiveness, rarity, and suitability in advancing outcomes of 3 workplace cohesion such as assignment cohesion, social cohesion, and collaboration. In information usefulness in workplace cohesion rarity when organizations are not likely to be rare, it can cause negative experiences such as conflicts, political infighting, and uncooperative team members. Organizational culture not properly influenced might lead to insignificant decision-making. This research also examined the control of organizational culture on the correlation among the variables. The paper discussed the role of information usefulness – specifying its meaning and implications for institutions. Focus was also placed on the individual aspect of workplace cohesion. It was thereafter concluded that information usefulness – based on related features such as information uniqueness, rarity, and appropriateness, drives the extent of workplace cohesion and contributes substantially to outcomes of task cohesion, social cohesion, and collaboration. This correlation is moreover inclined and inured by the scenery or outline of customs modified and applied by the organization. It was also recommended that considerations of applicability and context be emphasized in the setting of information and its use in the organization.
