Communication

Words, tone, and non-verbal cues. The three things that play into communication. What is interesting to me is what percentage each one plays in communication. In class, we learned that 14% of communication is through words, 35% is through tone, and 51% is through non-verbal cues. I definitely agree with this. I have been in so many situations where people say certain things, but it is SO obvious that they don’t mean anything they are saying. My advice is to make sure what you are saying matches your tone and your body language. You can say whatever the heck you want, but that doesn’t mean anything. You have to be sure that you mean what you say. If these match up, communication can be much more effective.
