Communication is the exchange of thoughts, feelings, ideas, information and knowledge between two or more people through speaking, writing, listening, or nonverbal signals. Effective communication requires speaking, listening, writing, collaboration, and an understanding of nonverbal cues. Barriers to communication can occur due to environmental factors, other people, time constraints, characteristics of the communicator such as language used, lack of self-awareness or feedback, and characteristics of the receiver such as lack of interest, selective perception, or personal values. Good communication skills include maintaining eye contact, body awareness, gestures, conveying thoughts clearly, and practice.

• Speaking: friendly conversation with
colleagues can build mutual trust and
even detect problems before they become
serious.
• Listening: If a speaker can see and feel
that someone is listening and
understanding that can help build a
stronger, deeper relationship between
interlocutors.
• Writing: When you write something down,
you create a permanent record of that
communication.

5. • Collaboration: In order to collaborate, you
must be good at asking questions, respecting
others’ contributions, generating their trust
and considering their perspectives.
• NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION: People say a
lot with facial expression or quirk of body
language can communicate attitude and
interest better than words can.
