The Importance of Good Communication

Being able to communicate effectively is one of the most important life skill to learn. Communication is defined as transferring information to produce greater understanding. It can be done vocally (through verbal exchanges), through written media (books, websites, and magazines), visually (using graphs, charts, and maps) or non-verbally (body language, gestures, pitch of voice, and tone). All of these means of communication are essential soft skills that are vital for a successful career. 

 Having strong communication skills aids in all aspects of life – from professinoal life to personal life and everything that falls in between. From a business standpoint, all transactions result from communication. Good communication skills are essential to allow others and yourself to understand information more accurately and quickly.

        Good Communication Skills for a Great Career

Succeeding in your career requires good communication skills. You need to know what you want and how you are going to attain it. Being an excellent communicator can help propel your career.

Good communication skills can aid in helping you land an interview and pass the selection process. Being able to articulate well provides a significant advantage! To do your job effectively, you have to discuss problems, request information, interact with others, and have good human relations skills – these are all part of having good communication skills. They help in being understood well and in helping understand the needs of those around you.

        Consequences of lacking communication

     1. Misunderstandings

Misunderstandings happen all the time, especially when communication is not clear. And misunderstandings out of a lack of communication can lead to some serious issues in the workplace.

    2. Missed opportunities

A lack of communication can often lead to missed opportunities, especially at work. This can happen because an employee does not clearly communicate their interest in an opening for a promotion.

    3. Unecessary conflict

Unnecessary conflict can certainly arise from a lack of communication. For example, a lack of communication might cause two colleagues to end up doing more work for a team project than necessary. Perhaps they thought the other person wasn't doing a certain task, so they took it on for themselves only later to find out that the other person already did it. This can cause tension on the team.

    4. Mistrust

A lack of communication can lead to mistrust in the workplace in a whole array of situations. Again, if a manager lays off several members of their team without explanation to the remaining team members, this can cause mistrust.

         Improve Communication Skill

Lack of communication can ruined everything, insteed of knowing someone we just assume. to prevemt this from happening, Here are some pointers to look out for when looking to improve communication skill

     1. Listening

To become a good communicator, it is important to be a good listener. It is important to practice active listening– pay close attention to what others are saying and clarify ambiguities by rephrasing their questions for greater understanding.

    2. Conciseness

Convey your message in as few words as possible. Do not use filler words and get straight to the point. Rambling will cause the listener to tune out or be unsure of what you are talking about. Avoid speaking excessively and do not use words that may confuse the audience.

    3. Body lamguage

It is important to practice good body language, use eye contact, utilize hand gestures, and watch the tone of the voice when communicating with others. A relaxed body stance with a friendly tone will aid in making you look approachable by others. Eye contact is important in communication – look the person in the eye to indicate that you are focused on the conversation. But make sure to not stare at the person as it can make him or her uncomfortable.

    4. Open-mindedness

In situations where you disagree with what someone else has to say, whether it be with an employer, a co-worker, or a friend, it is important to sympathize with their point of view rather than simply try to get your message across. Respect the opinion of others and never resort to demeaning those who do not agree with you.

    5. Respect

Respecting what others have to say and acknowledging them is an important aspect of communication. Being respectful can be as simple as paying attention to what they have to say, using the person’s name, and not being distracted. By respecting others, the other person will feel appreciated, which will lead to a more honest and productive conversation.

    6. Using the correct medium

There are several different forms of communication to use – it is important to choose the right one. For example, communicating in person about serious matters (layoffs, salary changes, etc.) is more appropriate than sending an email regarding the matter.

 

    Good communication is frequent, focused, tailored and has some mechanism to make it a dialogue, rather than a monologue. Being able to think about the point of view of others is key.
