1.1 Communication
An apparent solution to the uncomfortable gaps between oneself and others, the
private and public spheres, and one's inner thoughts and the outside world is
communication. As this definition makes clear, it is challenging to consistently
define communication because, in everyday usage, the term refers to a very broad
spectrum of various behaviors involved in the spread of information. According to
John Peters, the challenge in defining communication arises from the fact that it
is both a universal phenomenon (because everyone communicates) and a distinct
academic profession with institutionalized research

1.1.1 Process of communication.


The process of communication is dynamic and starts with the sender
conceptualizing ideas. The sender then sends the message to the receiver through a
channel, who then responds with a message or signal within the allotted time frame.
Consequently, the communication process consists of seven main components

communication is dynamic and starts with the sender conceptualizing ideas. The
sender then sends the message to the receiver through a channel, who then responds
with a message or signal within the allotted time frame. Consequently, the
communication process consists of seven main components
2. Encoding: The sending party starts the process of encoding by
converting the information into a message using certain words or non-verbal cues
like symbols,signs, body language, etc. The knowledge, abilities, perspective,
history, capabilities, etc. of the messenger have a significant impact on the
message's success.
3. Message: The sender receives the message he intended to transmit after
the encoding is complete. The message may be sent orally, in writing, symbolically,
or nonverbally through body language, silence, sighs, sounds, or any other means
that prompts a receiver to react.
4. Communication Channel: The Sender selects the channel through which he
wants toreach the recipient with his message. To ensure that the recipient
understands the message effectively, it must be properly chosen. The recipient and
sender's interpersonal interactions, as well as the urgency of the message being
communicated,influence the media that is chosen. A few of the often used
communication methods are gesture, sound, writing, and spoken communication
5. Receiver: The individual for whom the message is intended or aimed is
known as the recipient. In order to achieve the goal of communication, he makes
every effort to understand it. The receiver's ability to decipher the message
depends on his familiaritywith the subject, experience, level of trust, and
relationship with the sender
6. Decoding: In this step, the receiver attempts to grasp the sender's
message as clearly as possible. Only when the recipient fully comprehends the
message as intended by the sender can communication be considered successful.
7. Feedback: The feedback stage verifies that the message has been
received and understood by the recipient in the manner intended by the sender. As
the sender is ableto gauge the success of his message, it improves communication
effectiveness. The receiver's response may be verbal or nonverbal.

1.2 Types of communication.


The two types of communication we need to know about are :

1. Verbal communication: Verbal communication includes all forms of spoken


language as well as nonverbal communication, such as sign language. In orderto
prevent misunderstandings and increase interest while you speak, it is crucial to
understand how to effectively communicate your ideas verbally. Use the appropriate
terminology, communicate clearly, understand your audience, give the greatest
possible response, and speak in an appropriate tone
2. Nonverbal Communication: Half the battle is won by actually saying anything;
the other half is won by not saying anything at all. This includes your voice tone,
body language, hand gestures, and eye and facial contact. You may fix your mistakes
and finally use all the appropriate nonverbal cues to make your argument when you
become conscious of what the rest of you isdoing while you speak.

1.3 Interpersonal skills:


We employ interpersonal skills on a daily basis to engage and communicate with
others, both individually and in groups. They cover a wide spectrum of abilities,
but are especially strong in communication abilities like active listening and
persuasive speaking. The capacity to regulate and manage your emotions is also
among them
The idea that interpersonal abilities are the cornerstone of success in life is not
hyperbole. People with good interpersonal skills typically have the ability to
collaborate effectively with others, both formally and informally, including in
teams or groups. They are able to efficiently communicate with friends, family,
coworkers, customers, and clients.
By becoming more conscious of how you connect with others and honing your
interpersonal skills, you can enhance your interpersonal abilities.
