Communication
We define communication as sharing messages. We can communicate in many ways: verbally, in writing, and even through artistic means, like dance.
One of the challenges of communication is being understood. Our skill at expressing ourselves and our ability to listen vary depending on how much effort we apply, and can also be impacted by barriers such as:
- Noise
- Language
- Culture
- Disinterest
- Experience
- Education
- Emotion
- Vocabulary
- Mood
Possible answers:
- Nervousness on the part of the employee and/or supervisor
- Vocabulary if you do not have the same language fluency levels
- Emotion (excitement, interest, joy) on the part of an employee who anticipates a positive review
