How to overcome communication barriers?

If you face problems while transmitting your information to the next person then, you are on right page. 

You will know how you can overcome communication barriers. 

 Here are top 5 ways you can use to kick out the communication barriers. 

Let's meet them-

 1. Give due importance to Gesture and tone

Saying a hi/hello with the wry face to your colleagues will put them in doubt (what kind of hello is this?). Right?

Saying three Magical words 'I love you' in anger will also not make any sense. 

Thus, rather than giving your much attention to the words or sentences just give that load of importance to gesture and tone only. 

2. Remember to KISS(Keep It Short and Simple) 

Any message you want to give, you are required to keep it as short as possible.  Because no one has plenty of time to give you his entire heed. So include only fine details of the message to be transmitted. This is called kiss concept.

3. Use simple and meaningful language

There may be some words or sentences that are completely incomprehensible to you and  the person in front. This is because you and the person as well might not be familiar with such words or sentences earlier. 

So use very simple language with the meaningful content so that it can easily be understood.

4. Communicate to express not to impress 

It is often seen that we take a deviation from our genuine message just in order to impress the audience, and not come to the main point. This is usually called 'Beating about the bush'.  Because we do not say what we are supposed to say, we keep the audience(information receiver) engaged in other stories just to impress them. 

5. Develop the patience to listen and understand others

Jumping to the conclusion is not good thing. Is it? 

Give your all attention to the person's message being sent to you and then only react only after comprehending the message/information. 

Suppose you boss says, "our company is going to lay off around 100 employees and you instantly asked without listening to his complete statement, "sir are you also one of those employees"?. So, this is not a good thing. 

We hope this article is beneficial to you.
