COMMUNICATION PROCESS
The process of communication involves effort from both the sender and receiver of the message. Else the process can be fraught with error, with messages often misinterpreted by the recipient. When the error is not detected, it can cause tremendous confusion, wasted effort and missed opportunity.
Problems with communication can pop-up at every stage of the process. To be an effective communicator and to get our point across without confusion, our goal should be to lessen the frequency of these problems at each stage. This can be done through clear, concise, accurate, and well-planned communications.
The communication process consists of basic components like sender, encoding, channel, decoding, receiver, and feedback and the context.
