Interpersonal Communication


Interpersonal Communication:

Introduction:
Interpersonal communication plays a pivotal or significant role in the success of an organization, a
company or an industry. As it conveys the clarity of thoughts, logical thinking, conciseness of ideas
and accuracy of words.
Definition:
Interpersonal communication is the process of sending and receiving information between two
or more people.
Explanation:
v  When one writes a letter, a memo or a report, he is not only conveying technical information but he is revealing himself to the reader. If he writes well, it will show his reader that he can think logically and automatically he will put a strong impact on the reader’s mind and he will conclude that  he can think clearly.
v  On the other hand, if a person write poorly the reader will judge him wrongly and consider him
a  poor worker if he is an employ in some industry or company. It will reveal that he can neither
think logically nor can he communicate his thoughts effectively.
v  Technical writing is an extension of an employee’s inter personal communication skill at work and his competence will be assessed by his co-workers on the basis of the effectiveness of his
Correspondence.
v  Examples:
v  A man with a Master’s degree in criminal justice enrolled himself in a technical writing class
To improve his technical writing skill. When asked why? He said that his supervisor is dissatisfied
With his writing skill, they have given him 90 days to improve else he will be terminated.
v  On the other hand, a former student got a job in civil aviation as a technician. One day she wrote
a problem solution report. The report was well received and passed around the company as an
exammple of good writing. Management was so impressed by her writing skill that she was promoted to a supervisory  level where her communication skills could benefit the company.
Conclusion:
Interpersonal  communication skill plays a significant role in the success of a person himself

And beneficial for the company as well.
