INTRODUCTION:
The symbolic arbitrary nature of words causes language to be a vehicle of confusion as often as it is a means of clarity among persons. Colloquialisms for
example are words or phrases that sometimes are meaningless, ambiguous, or outdated. Cliches are words or phrases that are overused and have lost their
effectiveness; they reduce ideas to a pedestrian level of staleness or flatness. Euphemisms are mild or inoffensive words that are substituted for
harsh or offensive words. Jargon refers to meaningless talk which is mostly used by special group or profession which can lead to a lack of clarity and sometimes causes negative feelings. Regionalisms are
unique to a particular region of a country. Slang is specialized language of a group of people who share a common interest or belong to the same subculture.
For as long as language has existed, people have used words to manipulate others into adopting certain attitudes, taking certain actions, desiring certain things. Imagine a company with employees of different languages, nationalities,
cultures and subcultures; what would be the communication process look like. Poor listening, misunderstanding, lack of clarification, inability of stating what is needed, lack of awareness of what is going on, etc., all can lead to
a lot of problems and conflicts that negatively affect the performance and the productivity of the company.
Poor listening may be the major cause of misunderstanding between people. When we fail to listen to others,
we ignore one of the most direct and immediate ways to recognize them. A simple 10 SR listening mistake by each employee, would cost millions. The key solution to this is “KNOWLEDGE”
Knowledge
means that we:
- speak clearly and persuasively so we can be understood by others
- analyze what we are listening to
- know
manipulative techniques others might use
- are free to listen and when we listen, we listen attentively with interest
- make our own decisions
Communication is essential in our life and one can not survive with out it. It is an integral part of our creation. We are a communication species and we are born to communicate and become strong. If only one person alive, there is
nobody alive. We depend on ourselves and hence we cooperate. The quality of life depends on the quality of communication.
We communicate upward, downward, horizontal, formal and informal. We communicate for inquiry,
clarification and feedback. Our morale is improved through communication and productivity is achieved. The company’s receptivity is tested and if it is successful; this will encourage employees to submit their ideas accordingly. Only
through communication the acceptance of decisions is facilitated and important feedback is always provided.
Communication helps transmits orders, policy, procedures, job rationale, job instructions and feedback.
Coordination, problem solving, conflict resolution, information sharing, developing interpersonal rapport, and social and emotional support are all facilitated by communication.
So communicating with impact is a
critical and essential skill everyone should possess and that is the primary reason behind developing this type of training.
