Effective communication Skills for EveryoneToday Indya
Communication skills is the ability to use language
(receptive) and express (expressive) information.
Effective communication skills are a critical element in
your career and personal lives
Effective communication is all about conveying your messages to other people clearly and unambiguously. It's also about receiving information that others are sending to you, with as little distortion as possible.
Doing this involves effort from both the sender of the message and the receiver. And it's a process that can be fraught with error, with messages muddled by the sender, or misinterpreted by the recipient. When this isn't detected, it can cause tremendous confusion, wasted effort and missed opportunity.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
3. Communication – a process through
which we convey a thought or
feeling to someone else.
How it is received depends on a set
of events, stimuli which that person
is exposed to.
Communication
5. Bottom-up processing: the brain
doesn’t recognize objects directly.
It Looks for features that operate
independently from each other
and parallel.
Top-down processing: providing
the mental networks that organize
information into patterns and give
it meaning.
Understanding how we understand

7. The individual who initiates a
message in the conversation

8. Decoder - language
used to understand by
the receiver
Encoder – Language
used to speak by the
speaker

9. A discrete unit
of communication intended
by the source for
consumption by some
recipient or group of
recipients
Message
10. Communication channels are often considered from
the standpoint of the degree to which a channel is
able to convey the amount of information
transmitted in face-to-face communication
Channel
15. We Communicate to express our thoughts and emotions.
We communicate with our life partners, our family, our friends
and also with complete strangers we come across in our daily
life.
19. Conversation
Conversation is our primary management tool.
We converse to build relationships with colleagues and friends.
We converse to solve problems.
We influence other by holding conversations with them

23. LEVELS OF COMMUNICATION
• Intra verbal: intonation of
word and sound
• Extra verbal: implication of
words and phrases,
semantics
Verbal
• Gestures
• Postures
• Movements
Non-Verbal
29. However, if you
stress the word
likes,
“Cynthia likes
you”, the
message comes
out, “Whatever
made you think
she didn’t?”
30. Power of Pitch
Pitch can be most simply defined as
the key of your voice.
A high pitch is often interpreted as
anxious or upset. A low pitch sounds
more serious and authoritative.
31. Some Points to Remember about Paraverbal Communication
When we are
bored or feeling
down, our speech
tends to slow and
take on a
monotone quality.
When we are
feeling
defensive, our
speech is
often abrupt.
32. Tips to improve Paraverbal skills
Try lowering the pitch of your voice a bit.
Smile! This will warm up anyone’s voice.
Sit up straight and listen.
Monitor your inner monologue. Negative thinking will seep into
the tone of your voice.
33. Communication barriers consists of sender,
message, channel, receiver, feedback and
context and have the potential to create
misunderstanding and confusion.
Barriers to EFFECTIVE Communication
35. Take the receiver more seriously
Crystal clear message
Deliver messages skillfully
Focus on the receiver
Use multiple channels to
communicate instead of relying on
one channel
Ensure appropriate feedback
Be aware of your own state of
mind/emotions/attitude
Tips to overcome barriers..
38. Categories of Non-Verbal Communication
Nonverbal messages
produced by the body
Nonverbal messages
produced by the broad
setting - Time, Space,
Silence
39. Time
• To Some extent, reflection will reveal how time communicates. If you arrive 5 minutes late for
an important appointment and offer no apology, you send a certain message about yourself.
Space
• Personal space is that area you occupy and call your own. As the owner of this area, you
usually decide who may enter and who may not. There are 4 categories that demonstrate how
space can communicate – intimate space, personal space, social space and public space
Silence
• By using silence at strategic times, you can sometimes get your decoder to reveal certain
feelings and attitudes that may be hindering effective communication.
Nonverbal Messages Produced by the Broad
Setting

42. Reserved – the keeping of ones feelings, thoughts, or affairs to
oneself
Direct – very straight forward, to the point
Indirect – insinuate their point indirectly, instead of stating it
boldly or to the point
Open – having no closing or confining barrier
What is your communication style?
43. Good communication skills require a high
level of self-awareness.
By becoming more aware of how others
perceive you, you can adapt more readily
to their styles of communicating
There are 3 basic communications styles:
Passive, Assertive, Aggressive
Communication styles
44. Basics of Effective Communication
It matters not so much what you say as it does how you say it.
Your communication style is a SET of various behaviors and
methods of relaying information that impact all facets of life.
The goal should always be to understand – not to be right.
45. Passive
Failing to stand up adequately for your rights.
Hesitates, apologizes, gives in or says nothing.
Makes little eye contact, frowns.
Speaks in a shy or timid voice, or mumbles.
Passive people are referred to as “people
pleasers”
Styles of communication
46. Aggressive
defined as establishing one’s rights in a
way that violates or ignores the rights of
others
Interrupts, exaggerates, blames, makes
demands; uses sarcasm.
Makes glaring eye contact.
Yells, swears, calls names, clenches fist.
Ignores feelings of others.
47. Assertive
Standing up for your own rights without
dismissing on the rights of others.
Putting your own views and stating clearly
and honestly what you want
Speaks clearly and firmly using statements.
Shows respect for self and for others.
Makes steady eye contact.
Uses an upright confident body posture and
a pleasant, firm voice.
48. Basics of Effective Communication,
cont.
Get the facts before you pass judgment. Some styles lend
themselves better to this than others.
Learning all communication styles is important in order to avoid
communicating in less effective ways and in order to recognize
those styles in others so as to be able to deal with them.
People are not difficult. They only seem difficult to the extent
that we do not have the skills to deal with what they bring to
the table. It is our lack of knowledge that makes the situation
difficult.
49. Which is the Best Style?
All styles have their proper place and use.
Assertive communication is the healthiest.
Boundaries of all parties are respected.
Easier to problem-solve; fewer emotional outbursts.
It requires skills, as well as lots of practice and hard work.
When both parties do it, no one is hurt in any way and all parties win
on some level.
50. Passive Communication
Allowing our own rights to be violated by failing to express our
honest feelings.
The goal of being a passive communicator is to avoid conflict
no matter what.
Little risk involved – very safe.
Little eye contact, often defers to others’ opinions, usually quiet
tone, may suddenly explode after being passive too long.
51. Examples of Passive Communication
“I don’t know.”
“Whatever you think.”
“You have more experience than I. You decide.”
“I’ll go with whatever the group decides.”
“I don’t care. It doesn’t matter to me.”
“Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
52. Aggressive Communication
Protecting one’s own rights at the expense of others’ rights –
no exceptions.
The goal of the aggressor is to win at all costs; to be right.
Does not consider actions a risk because this person thinks
they will always get their way. It is risky in terms of
relationships, however.
Eye contact is angry and intimidating; lots of energy; loud and
belittling; never defers to others, or at least does not admit to;
manipulative and controlling.
53. Examples of Aggressive Communication
“I don’t know why you can’t see that this is the right way to do
it.”
“It’s going to be my way or not at all.”
“You’re just stupid if you think that will work.”
“Who cares what you feel. We’re talking about making things
work here.”
54. Assertive Communication
Protecting your own rights without violating the rights of others.
The goal of the assertive person is to communicate with
respect and to understand each other; to find a solution to the
problem.
Takes a risk with others in the short run, but in the long run
relationships are much stronger.
Eye contact maintained; listens and validates others; confident
and strong, yet also flexible; objective and unemotional;
presents wishes clearly and respectfully.
55. Examples of Assertive Communication
“So what you’re saying is. . . .”
“I can see that this is important to you, and it is also important
to me. Perhaps we can talk more respectfully and try to solve
the problem.”
“I think. . . I feel. . . I believe that. . . .”
“I would appreciate it if you. . .”
