Sometimes we could defined them in a complicated manner such as ;

â- Communication of what we are going to talk

â- Communication imperative

â- Context of speech

â- Feedback from audience

â- Interference from the audience

â- Interpersonal communication with the audience

The communication process is a perfect guide toward achieving effective and smooth

communication. When given attention properly, the process usually assure the sender’s

message will be understood by the receiver easily. Although the process seems simple,

in reality is not. Certain element present themselves throughout the process that have

factors which had a negative impact on the communication process. Some element

include the use of an inappropriate medium (channel) , incorrect grammar , inflammatory

words , words that conflict with body language , and technically. Noise can also be

common element and can occur during any stage of the process. Noise essentially is

anything that distorts or distract a message by interfering with the process. Noise can also

take many forms , including a radio playing in the speech hall, another person trying to

enter your conversation , phone ringing entry of audience in the middle of speech or

any other distractions that prevent the receiver from paying attention.

â€¢Distraction – it is hard to understand if you are distracted by something else.

â€¢Blocks – sometimes it’s hard to communicate simply because you cannot send or receive

the message.

â€¢Poor Skills – some people have not learned how to effectively listen, and do not

understand what you are trying to communicate.

â€¢Attitude – communication can also be affected by a poor attitude towards the other

person, as boredom or lack of interest in the subject can be affected, try to keep the

emotions out of the way until you understand what is being communicated.

â€¢Poor Understanding – Try to use simple words if you are communicating something

complicated, and make sure that both of you understand the context or cultural

references.

â€¢Lack of Feedback – if the receiver does not give feedback, the sender does not know if

the communication is effective or not; also, if the sender is not paying attention to the

feedback, the communication will not be effective.

Communication is well known for process which has several important components .Components, we can improve our own daily communication and better understanding of others. When we talk and think we are practicing meta communication. The purpose of communication is to get your message across to others clearly and effectively. This involves effort from both the sender of the message and the receiver. It’s a process that sometimes got error, with messages often misinterpreted by the recipient. When not detected , it can cause tremendous confusion , wasted effort , time and missed opportunity. Communication is only successful when the sender and the receiver understand the same information and idea of speech as a result of the communication. If you successfully get your message across , you convey your thoughts and ideas effectively . If not successful , the thoughts and ideas that you convey do not reflect your own speech , causing a communications breakdown and creating interruption that stand in the way of your goals – both personally and professionally.(Bovee&Thill,1992)

4.0 CONCLUSION

For your messages to be delivered effectively , you have to commit to breaking down

the barriers that exist in each of the stages. Start with the message itself . If it’s too

lengthy , disorganized , or contains errors , misunderstood and misinterpreted can be

expected from this. Use of poor verbal and body language can also confuse the

message and the audience. Once you understand all this , you have to work to

understand your audience’s culture , to make sure that you can converse and deliver your

messages to people of different backgrounds and cultures within your own organization

in this country and even abroad.To simplify the whole definition is that communication

is best to be summarized as transmission of a message from a sender to receiver in

understanding way and methods.
