Communication is a very important aspect of life as it connects each and every human being with one another, be it individual or groups.
In social settings, people communicate to share their thoughts, emotions and experiences. In work settings, information has to be disseminated efficiently and effectively. No doubt, communication plays a very important role in the process of development in all fields.
In reality, lacking of such important skill puts you in a lot of disadvantages. For example, if you are not being able to express yourself well or articulate properly, people might think that you are not intelligent or not well educated.
Personally, I think that I am just an average communicator.Therefore, there will be times where I feel left out in a group conversation. Of course, this feeling does not feel good. Also, effective communication skills are also crucial during job interviews where the 1 hour of 'interrogation' by the interviewers could be the determining factor for your future. Therefore, I am looking forward to the week that teaches skills to handle job interviews. Besides, effective communication skills are also the key to building a better relationship with your family and friends because it can mitigate interpersonal conflicts and this will make the relationship even stronger.
