Why Effective Communication Skills are Important for ME

 
Effective communication helps me to become more competitive and successful in the future workplace. Effective communication is the receiver is able to fully understand the meaning of the message which the sender wants to deliver. Therefore, it can avoid misunderstandings and confusions between supervisors and subordinates. For example, if a worker can understand his supervisor’s instructions effectively, he would be hardly to take the wrong actions and hence makes fewer unnecessary mistakes. By doing so, effective communication is very important for me to perform well in a team and then improve the productivity.
 
 
On the other hand, effective communication also allows me to build up a harmonious and blessed relationship with friends, family as well as the society. It can strengthen mutual understandings and trust, thus it provides better connections among people. Such as if we could communicate with our parents effectively, we would increase the family bond and avoid unnecessary quarrels and unhappiness with our parents. Well, when our friends faced problems, we can be good listeners and give positive suggestions. However, the most important lesson I leant from ES2007S is that effective communication does not only concentrate on verbal communication skills, but also non-verbal communication skills. I realize that non-verbal communication, like body language, goes on all the time even when we are silent. When our body language matches up with our verbal message, it reinforces the message and increases the trusts. Otherwise, it generates mistrusts and confusions.
 
In conclusion, as long as I spent time on learning and practicing effective communication skills, I believe that I can have a successful life one day.
