Effective communication is also a two-way street. Its not only how you convey a
message so that it is received and understood by someone in exactly the way you
intended, its also how you listen to gain the full meaning of whats being said and
to make the other person feel heard and understood.
Effective communication is the glue that helps you deepen your connections to
others and improve teamwork, decision making, and problem solving. It enables
you to communicate even negative or difficult messages without creating conflict or
destroying trust.
Negative body language. If you disagree with or dislike whats being said,
you may use negative body language to rebuff the other persons message,
such as crossing your arms, avoiding eye contact, or tapping your feet. You
dont have to agree, or even like whats being said, but to communicate
effectively without making the other person defensive, its important to avoid
sending negative signals.
Recognize when youre becoming stressed. Your body will let you know
if youre stressed as you communicate. Are your muscles or your stomach
tight and/or sore? Are your hands clenched? Is your breath shallow? Are you
"forgetting" to breathe?
Bring your senses to the rescue and quickly manage stress by taking a
few deep breaths, clenching and relaxing muscles, or recalling a soothing,
sensory-rich image, for example. The best way to rapidly and reliably relieve
stress is through the senses: sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. But each
person responds differently to sensory input, so you need to find things that
are soothing to you.
Agree to disagree, if necessary, and take time away from the situation so
everyone can calm down. Take a quick break and move away from the
situation. Go for a stroll outside if possible, or spend a few minutes
meditating. Physical movement or finding a quiet place to regain your
balance can quickly reduce stress.
ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION
DEFINITION :
A process by which activities of a society are collected and coordinated
to reach the goals of both individuals and the collective group. It is a subfield
of general communicationsstudies and is often
a component to effective managementin a workplace environment.
2. Informal Communication:
Informal communication is also known as Grapevine. It is free from
all sorts of formalities because it is used on informal relationships
between the parties, such as friendship, membership in the same club
or association.
Persons at the executive levels also use informal communication
when they find it difficult to collect information from the workers. Such
communication includes comments, suggestions etc. It may be
conveyed by a simple glance, gesture, smile or mere silence.
Managers and executives also favour the growth and development of
informal network of communication off and on. This process, In fact,
serves a very useful purpose in disseminating certain information
which, in the general interest of the organisation, cannot be
transmitted through the official channels.
Apart from that, it also offers the high and higher ups a clearer insight
into what the subordinates think and feel. But at the same time, the
weaknesses of the informal communication are also worth noting. It
may be mentioned that this process very often tends to pass distorted,
misinterpreted, and inaccurate and half- truth information and facts,
depending on the circumstances and the message. But still,
executives and managers cannot do away with informal
communication.
