[c]Adapting your behavior according to 'how you read-another person's behavior'!

Communication Breakdowns:>

*speech /Hearing dactors:-many examples of misunderstanding,

*Non-co operation

*Criticism &

*other forms of conflicts between persons or Parties can lead to communication problems.

Message Descrepancy:>means 'the message sent and the message received differ in meaning.The difficulty may be with the sender of mesage or the receiver as well.

Caution:-Avoid ambiuguous statements.
Caution:-Avoid 'pu-down statements'.
Caution:-Select words,phrases 'the receiver can understand'.Display successful experinces.Discussing on unsuccessful experineces /or experimentations may have negative impacts.

Caution:-Avoid 'unusual Expectations.Somttimes, expectations can create major problems between the sender and receiver.An expectation means 'thinking that something will occur'.An expectation can cause the receiver to 'read into'a message something 'that the sender did not intend'.

Caution:-Ask for clarification:-rather than risk a misunderstanding.
