Enhancing Communication Skills: The Art of Sending and Receiving Messages

Effective communication is essential for meaningful interactions. It involves sending a message from a transmitter to a receiver, who must understand it accurately. Communication can be verbal—through speaking, writing, or texting—or non-verbal, using signs, symbols, body language, and facial expressions. A significant portion of communication is non-verbal, with research suggesting it comprises 65-80%. Misunderstandings can arise if messages are not interpreted correctly. To foster clarity, ask questions, be specific, and paraphrase. Remember, how you say something can matter as much as what you say.
