What is Communication?

Communication is the transmission of messages


by exchanging thoughts or information through
language, images, signals, writing, or actions.
Communication requires a sender, a message, and a
recipient, but the recipient may not be present at
the time of communication or may not be aware of
the sender’s intent to communicate. Communication is
part of the way you look at yourself and helps you
understand yourself and others, solve problems, learn
new things, and build your career.
