Business Communication
One of the elements that mark the human existence is the communication. In the field of management, putting in work the management process or the management functions, are achieved through the help of communication. In this context, the communication must be understood as “a process of understanding between people, achieved through a process of transmitting information”.
So, we can highlight the following significant aspects from the communication: – the idea (what must be sent to the receptor); - transmitter – receiver (the persons between the communication processes, occurs.; – word – understanding (the language used for the subjects to be in line with the content and with the importance of the idea.

The communication process – In the communication process the most important elements are: the emitter; the message or idea; the means of communication; the language of communication; the receiver; the context; feedback
The emitter is the one that builds the message, initiates the communication choosing the right way to communicate and also the right message so that the receiver will understand the communicated message.
The message is the form in which the information is encoded by the transmitter; this form can be expressed as an idea, plan, order, decision, etc. The message scope is to bring the receiver in one of the states as knowledge, belief, impressed, development and the completion of an action.

Note: Between the transmitter and receiver, there may be some coding and decoding processes of the transmitted message by the transmitter and decoded by the receiver. The message may include verbal or nonverbal symbols, created in a text or a specific tone that may be liked or it may determine a specific threat. (the tone makes the music).
The means of the communication may appear as a communication channel (short or long) and is the message road map between the subjects of the communication.

The communication in this case may be: formally – when the hierarchical structure of the organization is respected; informally – when there are used some others connections in the message: ideas, opinions, rumors.
Note: The means of communication when there is a discussion from man to man, it can take the form of: official correspondence; meetings; telephone; fax; internet, etc.
The communication language. There are three types: verbal – the specific words of the common language; nonverbal – in which the words are replaced with the body language; paraverbal – using the tone, increasing the rate of the speech, etc.

The receiver is the subject of whom it is addressed the message. The context in which it is highlighted the place or the space in which the message is transmitted or received. Feedback is necessary to establish the perception degree, the message interpretation and the corrections what has to be made eventually.
