What is “COMMUNICATION”
Communication is exchange of information
from one person to another using various
means.
Communication will be effective only if it is
meaningful. These include body language,
eye contact, sign language, etc. Other
examples are media content such as
pictures, graphics, sound, and writing.
Definition
The word communication is derived from a Latin word
“Communicare” meaning “to share”.
“… Effective communication
requires more than an exchange of
information.
When done right, communication
fosters understanding, strengthens
relationship, improves teamwork,
and builds trust.”
“Most people do not
listen with the
intent to
Understand; they
listen with the
intent to Reply”
