nearly done.

Effect of Communication Barriers in Business Communication

• The employees are the assets for any organization and the profitability of any organization is directly proportional to the labor put by its employees.

• Effective work can be done by employees through working smartly, transparency between team members, free flow of information from the superior to the subordinates.

Strategies to Improve Communication

Effective communication is the process of successful transmission of the message from the sender o the receiver. If the receiver is able to receive the message in exactly the same way as the sender intended to do, communication is effective. The receiver must understand what the speaker wants to convey and accordingly must give his valuable feedback or simply respond.
