Communication Process

Communication is a process of sending and receiving messages with some meaning attached to it. The main elements of a communication process include sender as a source, communication medium and a receiver. (Roy, 2010, 9-12) The medium of communication is a way through which messages are communicated from one person to another. It is important to understand that when two people communicate with each other, two things are to be considered. Firstly, the communication needs to be accurate. Secondly, when an effective communication occurs, it means that the receiver has successfully perceived the message in the right way. These two issues have led to two different incidents in the workplace in which the outcome was both negative and positive. (Patrick, 2008, 222-256)

The elements or factors of communication are human: source, sender or encoder, code (rules of the sign, symbol), primary message (under a code), receiver or decoder, channel noise (barriers or interference) and feedback or feedback (feed-back, return message or post secondary).

Source

This is the place from where the information, data, content is sent, in short, from which flows the primary message.

Sender or encoder

The point (person, organization) that chooses and selects the appropriate signs to convey your message, i.e. the encoding to send so-always understood to be handled the same code between transmitter and receiver- receptor. There is an initiator in the communication process, at most there is a primary instance verbally emission which coincides with the one who "spoke first" - but the communication should be understood as a dynamic and circular, without beginning or end. We can start asking the communicative act when someone, but inevitably the communication began much earlier, to see the person, cautiously approaching the minimum distance of two strangers, looking at the person in the eye or imply that we want to talk. As you can see, communication is not limited to speech or writing: it is a complex process of mutual interaction endless.

Receiver or Decoder

The point (person, organization) to which the message is intended. There are two types of receptor, the person who only receives the message and the active receiver or recipient as it is the person who not only receives the message but perceives, stores, and even gives an ...
