RELATIONS

2. • Communication is key to your
success—in relationships, in the
workplace, as a citizen of your
country, and across your lifetime.
Your ability to communicate
comes from experience, and
experience can be an effective
teacher, but this text and the
related business communication
course will offer you a wealth of
experiences gathered from
professional speakers across their
lifetimes. You can learn from the
lessons they’ve learned and be a
more effective communicator
right out of the gate.
3. Communication Influences Your Thinking about Yourself and Others
We all share a fundamental drive to communicate. Communication can be defined as the
process of understanding and sharing meaning. You share meaning in what you say and how
you say it, both in oral and written forms. If you could not communicate, what would life be
like? A series of never-ending frustrations? Not being able to ask for what you need or even
to understand the needs of others?
4. Oral communication is the process of verbally transmitting information and
ideas from one individual or group to another. Oral communication can be
either Formal or Informal.
Advantages
• There are many situations in which it makes
sense to choose oral over written
communication. Oral communication is more
personal and less formal than written
communication. If time is limited and a
business matter requires quick resolution, it
may be best to have a face-to-face or
telephone conversation. There is also more
flexibility in oral communication; you can
discuss different aspects of an issue and
make decisions more quickly than you can in
writing. Oral communication can be
especially effective in addressing conflicts or
problems. Talking things over is often the
best way to settle disagreements or
misunderstandings. Finally, oral
communication is a great way to promote
employee morale and maintain energy and
enthusiasm within a team.
Disadvantages
• Despite the many benefits of oral
communication, there are times when
written communication is more
effective. For example, you may want to
exchange important information that
needs to be documented using written
communication. A lot of transactions in
the business world require some type
of written record, and you will find that
even strong verbal skills are not a
substitute for putting things in writing.
Additionally, oral communication tends
to be less detailed and more subject to
misunderstanding than written
communication. It's best to always
think carefully about which method of
communication best fits your objective.
5. Written communication involves any type of message that makes use of the
written word. Written communication is the most important and the most
effective of any mode of business communication.
Advantages
• No need for personal contact -
you can tell an employee he or
she has to work overtime
through an email instead of
face-to-face.
• Saves money - you can send an
email instead of calling long
distance.
• Written proof - provides
written proof in case of a
dispute.
Disadvantages
• Delay in communication - it
may take a while to get to
the intended recipient.
• Lack of secrecy - once it's on
paper, anyone can read it.
• Costly - if the sender and
receiver are sitting next to
each other, you still have to
spend money on paper or
Internet service.
6. In conclusion both of the communications are very important because
they help us to “evoleve’’ in better humans, and whithout them we
have no life.
