Here are five examples of 'barriers to comunication
Distractions
Distractions
can be a major barrier towards communication as if you get Distracted whilst
talking to someone, you could miss important information that is critical to
your job. An example of this is that someone could be chatting behind you
loudly and all you can think about is him. One technique to remove this barrier
is that you should go into a quiet room and discuss the matter so that you will
not be distracted and you can hear the conversation clearly
Language issues
Language
issues can be a major barrier towards communication as you won’t be able to
understand what the person who you are speaking to is saying. An example of
this is that you could be in trouble but you won't be able to tell anyone as
they can’t understand you. One technique to remove this barrier is that you
could you a translator app on your phone or buy a translator book at the local
shop
Technology failures
Technology
failures can be a major barrier towards communication as what if an important
piece of technology breaks and that stunts you career. An example of this is
that you are in an important meeting and the projector breaks; you cannot show
the people at the meeting your work on the important subject so now they will
have to leave not knowing or viewing your work. One technique to remove this
barrier is testing the projector the night before to make sure it works or have
a backup projector on standby.
Time
Time can be
a major barrier towards communication as what if you’re running late and
someone wants to talk to you. You would be too distracted to focus on the
conversation as you would be thinking about getting to work on time. So you
would not hear what the person was saying and that could have been important to
work. One technique to
remove this barrier is to get to work earlier so that you can get to work on
time.
Distance
Distance can
be a major barrier towards communication as if you are trying to talk to your
employer from a distance you may say something but your boss may interoperate
something else as he might not hear you and he is resorted to reading your
lips. One technique to remove this barrier is to try to get as close as
possible to the employer so that they can clearly understand you.
