COMMUNICATION

- the exchange of information and

understanding between sender and a receiver
* communication process starts with the sender
who has an idea or a message , which is then
transmitted through a selected channel to the
receiver, who in turn has to be ready for the
reception of the message, so that it could be
decoded into thoughts.
BARRIERS TO COMMUNICATION

1. filtering-the shaping of information

communicated in order to make it look good to
the receiver.
2. Emotions- the interpretation of communications
may be influenced by extreme emotions felt by
the receiver.
3. Information overload-too many pieces of
information received may have a negative effect
on person’s processing capacity.
4. language- words used maybe different meanings
to different people belonging to different age,
educational or cultural group.
5. National culture- just like language, the
prevailing natural culture may also cause problems
in communication among members of an
organization, especially, if it is multinational
company.
