  12. What is key? • The communication process is made up of four key components: • encoding • medium of transmission • decoding • feedback

  13. How does it work? SenderMessageContentReceiver

  14. Where does it start? • The process begins with the sender and ends with the receiver. • The source is initially responsible for the success of the message. • The SENDERinitiates the communication.

  15. How does it get there? • Written words, spoken words, and nonverbal language ensures that the RECEIVERinterprets the message as intended by the sender.

  16. What about interference? • The sender's experiences influence the message: • Attitudes • knowledge • skill • perceptions • culture • age • gender

  17. What’s the code? • Sender involves the Encoding process, In order to convey meaning

  18. What kind of info? • Translating information into a message in the form of symbols that represent ideas or concepts, that take numerous forms such as, languages, words, or gestures and ideas into messages that others can understand.

  19. How much info? • The sender decides what he/she wants to transmit, based on what he/she believes about the receivers knowledge and assumptions, along with what additional information he/she wants the receiver to have.

  20. Will it look familiar? • Use symbols that are familiar to the intended receiver. A good way for the sender to improve encoding their message, is to mentally visualize the communication from the receiver's point of view.

  21. How will I see it / hear it? • Transmitting the message, the sender uses some kind of channel (also called a medium). • Most channels are either oral or written, but currently visual channels are becoming more common as technology expands.

  22. Is there more than 1 way? • Common channels include the telephone and a variety of written forms such as memos, letters, and reports. • Oral and written channels should be used because one supplements the other.

  23. Will I make mistakes? • If a sender relays a message through an inappropriate channel, its message may not reach the right receivers. • That is why senders need to keep in mind that selecting the appropriate channel will greatly assist in the effectiveness of the receiver's understanding.

  24. How fast can it get there? • The sender's decision to utilize either an oral or a written channel for communicating a message is influenced by several factors: • Is the message urgent? • Is immediate feedback needed? • Is documentation or a permanent record required? • Is the content complicated, controversial, or private? • Is the message going to someone inside or outside the organization?

  25. What does the receiver know? • What oral and written communication skills does the receiver possess? • Decoding is conducted by the Receiver.

  26. Will they know what I mean? • Once the message is received and examined, the stimulus is sent to the brain for interpreting, in order to assign some type of meaning to it. It is this processing stage that constitutes decoding. • Successful communication takes place when the receiver correctly interprets the sender's message.

  27. What can influence the message? • All interpretations by the receiver are influenced by their experiences, attitudes, knowledge, skills, perceptions, and culture. It is similar to the sender's relationship with encoding.

  28. Will I hear from them? • Feedback is the final link in the chain of the communication process.

  29. Respondezvouss’ilvous plait? • After receiving a message, the receiver responds in some way and signals that response to the sender. • The signal may take the form of a spoken comment, a long sigh, a written message, a smile, or some other action.

  30. What if I don’t hear back? • "Even a lack of response, is in a sense, a form of response"

  31. Did they hear me? • Without feedback, the sender cannot confirm that the receiver has interpreted the message correctly.

  32. Can I measure what they heard? • Feedback is a key component in the communication process because it allows the sender to evaluate the effectiveness of the message.

  33. Can I fix it? • Feedback ultimately provides an opportunity for the sender to take corrective action to clarify a misunderstood message. • Certain barriers present themselves throughout the process.

  34. What can block the message? • Those barriers are factors that have a negative impact on the communication process. • Some common barriers include the use of an inappropriate medium (channel), incorrect grammar, inflammatory words, words that conflict with body language, and technical jargon. !@#$%^&*()@!!##$%

  35. WHAT CAN INTERFERE? • Noise is also another common barrier. Noise can occur during any stage of the process. Noise essentially is anything that distorts a message by interfering with the communication process. • Noise can take many forms, including a radio playing in the background, another person trying to enter your conversation, and any other distractions that prevent the receiver from paying attention.
