The amazing thing about communication is that we all
do it (all living things), realizing it or not, understanding what it really is
or not. It is simply the act of transmission of information between two or more
individuals in order to create a common understanding. Although this is a
simple definition, when we think of how we can communicate the subject becomes
more complex. There are different types of communications and more than one may
occur at any time. Communication includes verbal, non-verbal and electronic
namely human interaction. As human beings, we use communication to: relate to
others, socially connected, to greet, to attract attention, emotions, share
feelings, express an opinion, agree, disagree, explain, exchange of
information, questions, answers, tease, agree to negotiate, argue, manipulate,
compliment, comment, protest, complain, describe, encourage, guide, provide
feedback, showing humor, discuss interests, be polite, Make Friends, interest
or Express disinterest, etc.
My understanding of communication is the conveying of a message through verbal, non-verbal, or electronically means or through all 3.
ReplyDeleteMy understanding of communication is the transfer of information from one party to another with shared meaning. There must be some form of feedback to ensure that the message that was sent was received in the it was meant, thus achieving effective communication.
