In this fast-paced and multi-tasking environment, it is a challenge for both communicator and receiver to be mindful of communication flows, be prompt and accurate in communicating and decoding/understanding the message.

Be succinct in communicating, learn both verbal and non-verbal modes to improve communication and understanding.
If we all would take responsibility for our communication, we would live in a different world for sure! Thank you for your feedback!

From my experience two things block effective communication; not enough listening or time put aside to complete a conversation.
Could you please explain further what you mean by "time put aside to complete a conversation"? Thank you in advance!

This is such an interesting topic Therese, thank you for bringing it up. You are right that it may be stronger in some cultures. For you, as a woman, I would strongly recommend mastering practice #3 in the guide and also practice "power gaze" (this is something I will teach later on), however, it basically means to keep your eyes looking at the eyes and forehead of the person you are speaking with when you are keeping eye contact (avoid looking below the level of the eyes). I hope that makes sense.
Yes, the power gaze makes good sense. Thanks.

one of the struggles I faced is the sender have no ideas about following points:

1. what is the background of the receiver?

2. what information is needed for the receiver?

3. what you delivery fit the receiver's information frame works, or not?

4. in which context you communicate? how long is the communication should be? do you summarize the key point correctly.

Once of the common barrier is 'Language', if communication is not properly understood or communicated then the out product will be in high risk.

Another will be location, communication in co-location (everyone physically present under one roof) is way more productive and effective versus global or virtual. If communicated is not properly or regularly communicated than managing team will be very difficult.
