Jagannadha Swamy  \nDean Career Guidance GRIET  \nWhat are communication skills?  \nCommunication skills are the abilities you use when giving and receiving different kinds of information . Some examples include communicating new ideas, feelings or even an update on your project.  \nTypes of communication skills  \nThere are different types of communication skills you can learn and practice to help you become an effective communicator. Many of these skills work together making it important to practice communication skills in different contexts whenever possible.  \nActive listening  \nActive listening means paying close attention to the person who is speaking to you. People who are active listeners are well-regarded by their co-students because of the attention and respect they offer others. While it seems simple, this is a skill that can be hard to develop and improve.  \nAdapting your communication style to your audience Different styles of communication are appropriate indifferent situations . To make the best use of your communication skills, it's important to consider your audience and the most effective format to communicate with them. Depending on the situation, you may even need to send a formal, typed letter over other forms of communication.  \nFriendliness  \nIn friendships, characteristics such as honesty and kindness often foster trust and understanding. The same characteristics are important in workplace relationships. When you ' re working with others, approach your interactions with a positive attitude, keep an open mind and ask questions to help you understand where they're coming from.  \nConfidence  \nIn the workplace, people are more likely to respond to ideas that are presented with confidence. There are many ways to appear confident such as making eye contact when you're addressing someone, sitting up straight with your shoulders open and preparing ahead of time so your thoughts are polished.  \nGiving and receiving feedback  \nStrong communicators can accept critical feedback and provide constructive input to others. Feedback should answer questions, provide solutions or help strengthen the project or topic at hand.  \nVolume and clarity  \nWhen you're speaking, it's important to be clear and audible. Adjusting your speaking voice so you can be heard in a variety of settings is a skill and it's critical to communicating effectively. Speaking too loudly may be disrespectful or awkward in certain settings.

This communication skill is important in both team and one-on-one settings. In both cases, you will need to understand other people's emotions and select an appropriate response.  \nRespect:  \nA key aspect of respect is knowing when to initiate communication and respond. In a team or group setting, allowing others to speak without interruption is seen as a necessary co m m un icat ion s ki ll . Respectfu lly communicating also means using your time with someone else wisely—staying on topic, asking clear questions and responding fully to any questions you've been asked  \nResponsiveness:  \nWhether you're returning a phone call or sending a reply to an email, fast communicators are viewed as more effective than those who are slow to respond. One method is to consider how long your response will take.  \nHow to improve your communication skills?  \nWith experience and practice, you can learn and improve communication skills. Start by identifying your strengthsand then practice and develop those areas.  \n􀀂 Ask a close friend or colleague for constructive criticism.
