With so much communication occurring on-line today in fact, it's not unusual to find people in adjacent offices using email to communicate to one another. What are some ways to ensure your message is received as it was intended? What are some common barriers to communication? Discuss how they impact the communication process. Picture this. It's Sunday morning, a few hours before the annual company picnic. The wife, while ironing her dress, asks her husband, "Do we really have to go to the picnic today?" The husband responds, "Yes." Is there a communication breakdown, and if so, who is responsible? Picture this. Your roommate is a total slob. Today, you've decided you've had enough and piled all his/her dirty clothes on his/her bed and vacuumed the room you share. What message did your roommate receive from this gesture?
