As one deeply thinks about communication, not the just the professional aspect of it comes into the picture, but also personal communication. To put it more objectively, learning about communication involves how, why and what is communication in all realms of life. And that is precisely what we are going to infer in this course – ES2007S.
Communication for me is a flow – of thoughts, ideas, ideals, dreams and even emotions. Dictionaries define communication as an act of giving. It is to a very large extent the truest meaning of communication. I believe in the power of giving, not just philanthropically, but in a more direct and literal manner. You give a person a part of you. That is communication! And when it involves something so personal it has to be effective. Hence effective communication is important for me.
On a very personal note, being a people’s person in and out, I believe that effective communication is important in any human relationship be it at the workplace, home, school or anywhere. As history has been proof of how even slight miscommunication lead to a breakup, an unsuccessful deal or in the most extreme cases, even loss of life.
World’s biggest problems have never risen from the fact that someone did communicate, but from the fact that there was miscommunication or in some case no-communication. Hence a basic skill set of efficient communicating abilities is a must. I strongly believe that humans are a vulnerable race, and if you are able to convince them with your communication skills, the world will be yours.
