Communication Paradigm
Effective communication must have a sender and a receiver. If either is missing , then there is no communication.
misccomunication can be the fault of
the sender when the message is unclear
the receiver when the receiver is unprepared
the message when the mode of transmition is faulty or inappropriate.
I WAS IN A SITUATION WHERE THE SENDER'S MESSAGE WAS CLEAR, THE RECEIVER READ THE MESSAGE BUT, CHOSE NOT TO RESPOND AS IT WOULD INDICATE THAT THE RECEIVER WAS GUILTY OF NOT BEING EFFECTIVE AND THEREFORE WAS AT FAULT FOR NOT COMMUNICATING. CRAZY!
Agree. I must say I'm guilty of not responding in a timely fashion. What goes around comes around and proper etiquette is to respond to messages via phone or e-mail. Common Courtesy goes a long way.
