Through talking we exchange information so, every word we say, every gesture we make implies something, that`s why is very important to know some communication skills.


Communication is of more types. For example we have: verbal communication and non verbal communication. The verbal communication includes oral and written. Oral communication is the one we use it daily, is the spoken one, through words and written is done through letters, mails etc. Technology allows us today, to talk online, to send instant messages and so on. The other communication, the non verbal one, is as important as the oral communication. Non verbal includes face expressions, posture, gestures, paralinguistics, proxemics, haptics, appearance, eye gaze etc. All these things contribute to sending a good and appropriate message.

Other types of communication are formal and informal. Formal is used mostly at work , at special events, meetings, gatherings, and even when meeting new people with whom you can`t afford to make jokes or talk freely. Informal communication, is our daily language with friends and family. Informal means, relaxed without paying attention to conversation rules and so on. What's very important, is to always know when to use one of these types of communication.

In order to have an Effective Communication, people need to know some tips like : always smile when talking to someone. It gives a positive feelings and it shows an outgoing attitude. Also, listening is crucial. Not many people know, and even fewer listen to their partner. Asking open ended questions, allows you to have control over the conversation and more than that, it prevents the conversation from stopping. Open ended questions are questions that don`t have a yes or no answer. Choosing some topics of conversation is also very important. You can talk about : business, work, money if you are at a work meeting, if you are at a social event you can talk about the latest news, family, work, weather, politics etc. In a normal and casual conversation, all the other subjects are allowed.

As a conclsuion in order to have an effective communication you need to pay attention to the person you are talking to. An effective communication implies a successful exchange of information. The topic of discussion doesn`t really have to be so important, the idea is to find something you are both interested in. Talking with passion, can last for hours. Making the other person feel comfortable is also a great step to a great communication.
