Topic – How to communicate effectively and efficiently.
During today’s session, students were introduced to the goal of communication, which is to clearly express what we want to convey and to correctly understand what others are communicating to us. Communication is successful only when both the speaker and the listener understand each other properly.
The 3 C’s of Effective Communication –
1. Clarity – Clarity in thought is the key to clear communication. Students should think clearly before they speak or write. When ideas are clear in the mind, the message becomes easy for others to understand.
2. Concise – Be direct and to the point. Avoid unnecessary details and stick to the main subject. Clear and brief communication saves time and keeps the listener engaged.
3. Completeness –
A clear starting pointProper explanation or main contentA clear ending or conclusionA call to action (what should be done next)
