The document discusses types of communication and the communication process. It identifies four main types of communication: verbal, nonverbal, written, and visual. Verbal communication uses speech, nonverbal uses gestures and body language, written uses printed words, and visual uses art and images. The communication process has seven components: a sender develops a message, encodes it, and transmits it through a channel to the receiver who decodes and may provide feedback. Effective communication requires understanding different communication types and following the full process.
