What is Communication?
• Communication is a process of conveying messages
or information from one person to another within
and across channels, contexts, media, and cultures.
Speaker/Sender Receiver
Message Feedback
Encoding Context
Channel Barrier
Decoding
Speaker/Sender
• The one who convey the message or
information. The sender/speaker also
known as the encoder decides on the
message to be sent, the most effective way
that it can be sent.
Message
The content of the communication.
This is also the subject matter of the
communication, this may be an
opinion, attitude,, feelings, views,
orders, or suggestions.
Encoding
Since the subject matter of communication
is theoretical and intangible, its further
passing requires use of certain symbols
such as words, actions, or pictures etc.
Conversion of subject matter into these
symbols is the process of encoding.
Channel
The channel is responsible for the
delivery of the chosen message form.
The information is transmitted to the
receiver through certain channels
which may be either formal or
informal.
Decoding
The person who receives the message
or symbol from the communicator
tries to convert the same in such a way
so that s/he may extract its meaning to
his/her complete understanding.
Receiver
The person who receives the message
or from whom the message is meant
for. It is the receiver who tries to
understand the message in the best
possible manner in achieving the
designed objectives.
Feedback
Feedback is the process of ensuring that
the receiver has received the message
and understood in the same sense as
sender meant it.
Context
The context of any communication act is
the environment surrounding it. This
includes, among other things, place, time,
event and attitudes of sender and
receiver. Simply saying, it is where the
conversation takes place.
Barriers
There are many barriers in the process of
communication. These barriers may occur
at any stage or moment of conversation
which may lead to your message becoming
destroyed or distorted, and you therefore
risk wasting both time and/or money by
causing confusion and misunderstanding.
Common Barriers Example
to Effective Communication
Differences in perception and viewpoint.
The use of jargon.
Lack of attention, interest, distractions, or irrelevance
to the receiver.
Language differences and the difficulty in
understanding unfamiliar accents.
Physical disabilities such as hearing problems or
speech difficulties.
