I think it also is how open we are with ourselves and comfortable with the environment we're around. Sometimes it's not the right fit, and yet we try to make it work. It ultimately affects and chanages us, then we build up guard"communication barriers" which affect how we individually communicate affectively with one another.

Well, at least that's how I feel. I think I communicated that well :)

I stutter, and I am literate, precise, and logical when I speak. Unfortunately, 96% (in my experience of 40 years) of the population gets frustrated and tunes me out.

I can verbally communicate everything, but people REFUSE to listen to me, and either tune me out, or contemptuously begin talking over me. They've missed thousands of good ideas and made many bad decisions because they ignored me and instead listened to the charismatic dolt who has no insight or wisdom, but carries the day on his or her glib charm.

Sometimes they ridicule my suggestion during a meeting, but 2 weeks later someone else suggests the same idea, and it is suddenly brilliant! All they remember about ME is that I had a ridiculous suggestion two weeks earlier, as usual.

"Listening skills: “Having poor listening skills is a major contributor to poor communication,” she says. “It is important to carefully focus on what someone is saying without assuming their intent, interrupting or preparing your response.” Let the other person finish and be sure you’ve understood what they said before responding."

The advertisements for every decent job states: "Must have excellent (outstanding, etc.) verbal communication skills."

So I can take that as a clear "People with speech difficulties shouldn't apply, and should live in a cave for all we care. We can’t stand to listen to you."

An unproductive co-worker was just promoted...why? Because of his effecitve communication skills! This was a timely article and has certainly made me take a closer look at my own comm skills (or lack thereof). Thank you.

Thanks for the article...I started to read it not knowing what to expect...but I found myself thinking, "Wow, I have a tendancy to do many of these"... I guess we can sum it up as we take for granted that others can almost read our minds but communication is something that takes concentration as well....

I am lucky to work for a company http://www.citycabinetcenter.com that actually listens to what I have to say, maybe I should work on my communication skills to show my gratitude! Thanks again!

Communication skills are what makes the difference between great and average people. This article should have mentioned Toastmasters International, a non- profit educational organization helping men and women improving thier communication and leadership skills since 1924! Thousands of clubs in the USA, check out www.toastmasters.org to find the nearest club to you!

I like this educative piece of information. I think it is one of my weaknesses even outside the work/job sector. Truly speaking, these barrirers have made me look less authoritative, esteemed and commanding. I think I'll love to apply these solutions and possibly meet the writer online or log into your site for more solutions to my confidence-related problems. Thanks for the piece.

Is there something wrong with the this paragraph - especially given the text of the article? (HINT: are you "paying" attention?)

Because most of us communicate on auto pilot, it can be difficult to figure out which areas of communication we need to improve on. The best way to figure out if and where you’re experiencing communication barriers is to start playing attention to your daily conversations

Listening is probably the most important part of communications. Responsing to one has been said to you as opposed to just continuing your rambling shows that you don't care much about what others are saying.

The way we communicate with others affects our relationships more than what we are actually saying. Technology complicates it further by not allowing us to add tone or depth to what we are saying. In any work environment, it pays more to listen...but don't lose your voice, either. It's important to keep that balance. Don't allow yourself to become invisible!
