Eight phases of communication are crucial in enhancing the delivery of messages in a manner that averts miscommunication. In this context, the idea I was sharing with a classmate entailed how globalization has enhanced international trade by promoting universal communication. Concurrently, effective communication is an integral component of any business. It is critical to understand how information can be encoded, transmitted, and decoded for efficient communication.
Additionally, there are instances where miscommunication distorts the conveyance of exact messages. I used images related to globalization in a sequential manner (through coding) in order to encode the formulated ideas. The used images were meant to convey the message on how globalization has enhanced business trends and communication capabilities mentioned earlier. Coded images of countries interacting businesswise were used for viable information transmission.
Transmission occurred through the use of codes (sequentially-structured) to promote the intended communication. As the sender, I produced the message in a transmittable medium. This indicates the channel through which the message was transmitted. Evidently, transmission considered the recipient’s status and the context of the intended message. The aspects of miscommunication can alleviated through proper ratification of the eight communication phases.
The receiver got the message promptly as intended in the entire context. Nonetheless, there were instances of miscommunication since the ultimate understanding of the message indicated remarkable misinterpretation. Unfortunately, the receiver did not decode the message correctly. Instead, he understood the images (which I encoded and transmitted) as maps of different countries from different continents. He never realized any aspect of globalization, promotion of international businesses, and effective communication.
In fact, the receiver claimed why I decided to provide him with unnecessary maps. Through this, I came to know that he misinterpreted the message. He did not decode the message correctly hence the aspects of miscommunication noticed in the entire context. This is a critical provision when considered in the milieu of the mentioned eight phases of communication. Evidently, it is important to decode information as it was initially encoded. This indicates how the information transmission can be hampered in various contexts.
There are numerous barriers that prevented effective communication in this context. Firstly, the idea I had was not coherent thus could not be encoded easily using images despite the use of codes as a transmission medium in the entire context. It is crucial to understand that the eight communication phases are meant to enhance effective communication. Precisely my ideas were not coherent hence formed a considerable barrier in this context.
Another communication barrier that contributed the noticed miscommunication was how I encoded my ideas. The use of images to encode and transmit ideologies proved irrelevant in the context of globalization, international trade, and enhanced communication. It is important to understand the significance of proper communication in the entire context.
Another barrier noticeable in this context is the transmission channel. This could contribute to the misinterpretation by the receiver as indicated earlier. There were no prominent transmission channels that could be used correctly to convey the intended message. This contributed to the noticed miscommunication.
A viable transmission medium can enhance how the recipient will decode the transmitted message. Poor transmission channels are relevant in this context following the nature of the message I formulated, encoded, and transmitted to the recipient. This is a literal example of how the eight communicational phases can be established, enacted, and embraced for effective communication.
