How to communicate effectively through writing, speaking, listening, and reading

Comment
s:

1. Communication through writing

Effective writing allows the reader to thoroughly understand everything you
are saying.
Consists of email, texting, and blogs, we rely more and more on the imperfect
medium of written communication.
These are all forms of non-verbal communication.
2. Communication through speaking
Be clear and concise. Vary your tone, pace and volume to enhance the communication
and encourage questions
Persuading or Backing up your points with logic. Show tact to those you disagree with.
Making a speech in front of an audience: presenting your message in an
interesting way, structuring your presentation.
3. Communication through listening
Communication is about more than just exchanging information.
Effective communication skills include: nonverbal communication, engaged
listening, managing stress in the moment, the ability to communicate assertively,
and the capacity to recognize and understand your own emotions and those of the
person youre communicating with.
4. Communication through reading
If a read, its communication also because your understanding something stated
on paper. Goal for reading is to interpret something that is written or printed.
Make sense of a language.
