Communication in the work place in general has its problems:
- Email wording
- Making a point in a meeting
- Trying to get to a decision in a meeting
- Annual feedback sessions
- Handing over web/app designs to the implementation team
- Product one pagers
- Press releases
- Keyword-loaden blog posts
- Marketing slogans
- User manuals
- Travel policies
In presentations, the issue is most visible but it is sitting everywhere. People are used to transferring ideas in a dialogue where the recipient asks questions to help her understand what is being said. All this breaks down in one way communication.
