The process of making sense out of the world and sharing that sense with others in the context of organizations for the achievement of mutual goals. Communication models are simplified representations of the human communication process. They help us to understand complex things. What we learn from communication models: communication can be intentional or unintentional. We both give and give off information. We cannot not communicate: communication is irreversible and unrepeatable. You can never just take it back : sending and receiving occurs simultaneously, with both verbal and nonverbal elements. We never abandon the role of sender: communication has a relational as well as content dimension.
