    The 3 Important Rules of Communication
    In any language, there are three extremely important points to remember when you’re
    communicating with someone.

    1. Say what you mean. It can be difficult to express (say) some ideas clearly, but if
    you’re trying to prevent miscommunication, it’s important to say exactly what you
    mean. Be clear and to the point.

    2. Ask questions. Communication is two-way, which means you can’t be the one doing
    all the talking. To make sure your listener is engaged (interested in what you have to say)
    and understanding you, ask questions. See #5 below for good types of questions to ask.

    3. Listen. We mean really listen. Hear what your speaking partner has to say, and try to
    understand what they mean.
    Barriers of Communication
    • No interest in the conversation.
    Types of Barriers • Jumping to conclusions without
    • Psychological Barriers waiting for the whole message.
    • Inability to Listen to Others.
    • Physical Barriers • Lack of Transparency & Trust.
    • Emotional Barriers • Communication Styles (when they
    differ).
    • Attitudinal Barriers • Fear of offending the other person
    • Cultural Barriers by expressing your opinions.
    • Cultural Differences & Language.
    • Language Barriers • One feels not comfortable sharing
    • Gender Barriers your feelings with the other
    person
    • Interpersonal Barriers
    Listening
    WAYS TO IMPROVE THE COMMUNICATION SKILLS
    :
    1) Listen without judgment : The key to good communication is listening well. Save your judging for later
    after you have heard and understood what was said.
    2) Listen with the willingness :
    3) Listen without thinking about what you will say next.
    4) Do not be invested in being right.
    5) If your mind wanders, ask for repetition.
    6) In all cases repeat back what you heard and ask if it is correct.
    7) Listen to yourself.
    8) Say it honestly, but with consideration for the listener's feelings. Be polite, respectful and sincere.
    9) Understand and acknowledge that most things are not black or white, but somewhere in a gray area.
    10) Have integrity and build trust. Don't say what you don't mean. Don't promise what you won't or can't
    fulfill. Follow through with any commitments you make.
    11) Eye contact - Eye contact is also a big giveaway; making and maintaining eye contact is a big indicator of
    confidence.
    Steps to avoid embarrassing in communication with others:
    1. Be patient Your ideas are important, but no more important than anyone else’s.
    2 Listen carefully If you are busy thinking about what you want to say, you aren’t
    going to hear what the other person is saying.
    3. Take notes if necessary If the discussion is a long one, notes can help you
    remember the points you want to make.
    4. Rephrase what was said in your own words This is the clearest way to ensure
    you haven’t made an assumption about what a statement means.
    5. Don’t interrupt The speaker may be going on to clarify exactly what you are
    questioning.
    6. Pause and reflect : Allow some time to let the speaker’s comments fully sink in
    by pausing and reflecting before you jump in to speak.
