Perspective on communication

We all communicate, everywhere and all day long. We communicate with others, to others and we communicate with ourselves. Often we pay a lot of attention to the words we use or we seek support in a beautiful visual image.

 

Yet this is only a part of the information that is exchanged. On a deeper level there is more, both with the sender and the receiver of the information. Our non-verbal communication; our facial expression, our tone and our body, show minutely what is really important. Everyone gives meaning to the communication in their own way.

 

Becoming aware of how this works, for yourself and others, helps you communicate more effectively as a professional, manager and simply as a person.
