Barriers to Effective Communication

Hello class, I was thinking about the benefits of being an effective communicator and how important it is to be able to get your point across to another person. Then I started to think of what types of communication can actually hinder this process. I came across this site and it was really perfect for what I was thinking about. This is a concise excerpt of some common barriers to effective communication and I think it important for us all to be aware of them and understand them in order to avoid using them in our every day communications. I hope you enjoy reading over this and find it helpful. http://www.directionservice.org/cadre/section4.cfm#Barriers to Effective Communication
