Elements of Communication
• Communication is a simultaneous process in which
people interact with and through symbols over time
to create meaning.
• People send and receive message concurrently.
When one is listening, one is simultaneously
expressing one’s thoughts and feelings nonverbally.
• Communication is we-oriented rather than meoriented.

translate ideas and images in his/her
mind.

symbol (a code) that listener can
recognize.

to convey his/her ideas or sends
contradictory nonverbal cues,
listeners may not be able to decode or
translate verbal/nonverbal symbols

• The decoding of the message will rely
on his/her own particular blend of past
experience, attitudes, beliefs, and
values.

speaker should be receiver- or
audience- centered.
Elements of Communication
Feedback
• Feedback includes all messages, verbal
and nonverbal, sent by listeners to
speakers.
• It can be the facial expressions, nods,
murmurs of the audience.
• Skillful public speakers adjust their rate
of speaking, volume, vocabulary, and
other variables to communicate their
message successfully.
Elements of Communication

transmitted from sender to receiver.
