communication errors
Here are the key points about completeness in communication:
- Provide all relevant details and context so the receiver has a full understanding without needing additional information. Address all aspects of the topic.
- Consider the receiver's perspective and knowledge level to determine what background or additional details need to be included for completeness.
- Ensure the communication answers any questions that were asked as well as related questions the receiver may have. Address potential concerns or objections.
- Resist the urge to leave things out in the interest of brevity if those details are necessary for completeness. Conciseness comes after completeness.
The goal of completeness is to give the receiver comprehensive information so they have all the facts without needing further explanation or follow up
