QUESTIONING
Skillful questioning can be one of the most effective communication
tool, because through questioning, we can excavate new
information, learn more about others, build strong relationship, &,
there can be a more meaningful exchange of ideas & information.
Asking questions demonstrate that youre listening, and the level of
interaction increases, so interest increases.( Inter personally)
If we ask self-directed questions, we will come to know ourselves
better, quite reflection yields insightful questions & responses &
helps to sharpen our powers of listening & observation.
When we inquire, we can get rid of our preconceived assumptions
about anything / anybody, because assumptions lead to mistaken
expectations, damaged relationship, stress & miscommunications;
so, we shouldnt assume, but confirm.
By inquiring, we will get the best possible information which will
help in doing the job best.
While inquiring, keep aware of your own intention (dont
interrogate), control your tone of voice, body language & word
choice.

BREAKING BARRIERS
Barriers in context tend to stem from senders offering too much
information too fast.
Message should not be lengthy, disorganized or contain errors,
otherwise, the message may be misunderstood or misinterpreted.
Communication barriers can be avoided if we adopt the correct
vehicle of communication.
If there are good relations with each other transmission of
information is better.
The speaker should develop the habit of listening patiently, but
should be quick to evaluate information.
Persuasion should be there in actions not in language.
Avoid usage of such language/words, which have an ambiguous
meaning.
To have productive ideas, there should be a positive environment,
all around us.
WRITING SKILLS
The average sentence length, over the length of a document,
should be ideally between 15-20 words.

Communication problems have deep spiritual roots - deep inside the ego.
All such problems create stress in the environment - emotional, mental &
physical stress, & importantly communication problems drastically slow
down many or all of your intellectual capabilities, such as learning ease &
speed!
For a most efficient & pleasant communication, with all mankind on
earth, we always need to follow these rules: -
Keep a loving attitude towards any person we wish to
communicate.
The intention involved should be for the mutual benefit of all.
There should be full agreement between what we are saying &
doing, i.e.; to be able to publicly discuss, argue, or talk out true
and innermost intentions.
We must learn to always state clearly what we really feel & think.
Maintain a permanent eye-to-eye contact with the person we talk
to or we listen to.
Be open to all constructive, criticism and positive ideas given by all
involved in the communication process.
Be in a comfortable position & free of anytime pressure; be within
reasonable distance 0.7 mts to 1.50 mts.
Avoid distraction like, telephone calls, music, T.V. or radio or
other noise around you.

thought, good pronunciation, easy language, and voice modulation
& facial expressions.
