Overview

Communication is the process of exchanging information between people. It is impossible to live in any society without it because we all need to exchange information to interact.

Learning to communicate with people is essential to understand their needs and motivations. It is more than just a matter of delivering information from one person to another. It is about understanding different points of view from people from different cultures and backgrounds.

Regardless of who your audience is or how you communicate, you must deliver your message clearly and effectively. So it is because the same message may be perceived differently by recipients, and how you deliver your message will impact how they understand it.
