Communication
Communication is important in every aspect of a persons life, not only in personal but also in business. Effective communication is a vital tool for anyone business. The success of getting your point across can be the difference between sealing a deal and missing out on a potential opportunity. Effective communication can also help to foster a good working relationship between you and your coworkers, which can in turn improve morale and efficiency. Communication is not only what is spoken through words but also what is said without words but instead body language. Nonverbal communication between people is communication through sending and receiving wordless cues. It includes the use of visual cues such as body language, distance and physical environments/appearance, of voice and of touch.
