Introduction
Communication is a natural process that
involves at least two living things.
Communication skills are some of the most
important skills that we need to succeed in
the workplace.
Communication in an organization,
therefore, is a process that involves at least
two people – a sender and a receiver.

To Plan your communication:
Understand your objective. Why are you
communicating?
Understand your audience. With whom are
you communicating ? What do they need to
know?
Plan what you want to say, and how you’ll
send the message.
Good communicators use the KISS (“Keep
it simple and Straight forware”) principle.
