Explain them based on

the basic principles of effective communication.

Cartoon #1

The example above exemplifies good communication because it meets some of the
criteria or basic principles of effective communication. One of these is consideration. As
illustrated, the lady in the front (sender) is having a seminar on the employees (receiver) on
how to establish effective communication with customers. Since they are employees, the
sender considers the recipient’s profession while delivering the message.

Next is conciseness since the core message of the seminar about customer care training is
directly conveyed. There is a concise topic, and the sender avoids using lengthy expressions and
words that may confuse the recipient. Likewise, it showcases correctness since there are no
grammar mistakes and language misuse that obscure the message’s meaning. Also, concreteness
is apparent since the sender avoided abstract words to convey the message to reduce
misunderstandings between the parties. It also demonstrates clarity since fuzzy languages are
avoided to make the speeches understandable and direct to the point.
 Courtesy is also evident since the individuals are polite in approaching and
addressing each other’s concerns. The cartoon shows that both parties are on good terms and
communicating effectively as the recipients listen attentively while the sender is conveying
the message.

Cartoon #2

principles of effective communication. One of these is creativity; the cartoon showcases
creative illustration about the importance of upfront agreement of future communication to
the health of any business relationship. The comic demonstrates creativity in crafting

captivating since it strives to make the message interesting to command more attention and

with simplicity and directness to avoid confusion to the recipient of the message.

and manner of addressing each other. Based on the cartoon, both parties communicate well
and do not seem offended while communicating.
