Welcome to all the professional learners,

       I, Bhavin Chauhan, welcome all the professional learners for this venture. Communication is not only a subject also an integral part of our life. We cannot do anything without it. It is an inevitable element our life. 

      Years back I made many mistakes in communication which ultimately made me suffer from the consequences. Since then, I have started reading, searching and researching on the subject of HUMAN COMMUNICATION, NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION, EFFECTIVE INTERPERSONAL SKILLS, INTRAPERSONAL COMMUNICATION, LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT, and so on. Gradually, the interest has become passion. Today, after years of reading on this subject, I feel that the deeper we go into the subject of human communication, the more we will feel that we know nothing. The subject is itself so complex that we cannot understand promptly with single dimension. Multiple approaches are required for better grasping because here we are not dealing with the machines. We are dealing with LIVE BRAINS which responds differently in different situation. There is NO prediction for unpredictable working of human brain. But still knowledge and training on the subject will add to deal with the LIVE brain.

      The purpose of this blog is to make learners aware about processes, features, levels, flows, flaws and types of human communication. Understanding of this subject demands understanding of human behaviour with rationality.
     

     I will try my best to satisfy and ignite new flame of consciousness regarding this extremely valuable process.


        Thank You.


With respect,

Communication - Etymological Perspective

     The term 'communication' is derived from the Latin word 'communis' which means 'common'. Etymologically, communication is the process of sharing ideas and information to make those ideas common to all.        If we understand the concept etymologically, we can see that communication is process of making information common to all. It looks simple but not so. It is a very matter with a lot of delicate issues. We, humans, think, feel and react on different stimuli in different ways depending on time, environment, mood and attitude. So arriving at the common point is next to impossible still training affects a great deal.       The gist of method is that COMMUNICATION WORKS FOR THOSE WHO WORK FOR COMMUNICATION. We devote time to develop our strength on the subject. The more we peep in, the better the result will be. 

Components of Communication

Source Source is the originator of the message. It can be a person or persons who want to communicate the message to another person or a group of people. Source can be an individual speaker addressing a group, a child asking for ice-cream, the couple sending an invitation cards for their anniversary, a person writing a letter, etc. Message The Message is the idea, thought, or feeling that the source wants to communicate. This message is encoded into verbal and nonverbal symbols that will most likely be understood by the receiver. Receiver The receiver is the recipient of the message. The receiver can be an individual or a group of people. Once the receiver hears the words and receives the nonverbal cues from the sender, she must interpret or decode them if communication is to occur. Encoding Once the source has decided on a message to communicate, he must encode or convert that idea, thought or feeling into verbal and nonverbal symbols that will be most effectively understood by ...
