Q & A
What are physical barriers in the context of effective communication?
-Physical barriers include inadequate equipment such as outdated computers and phones with poor signals, background noise, poor lighting, and uncomfortable temperatures. They also encompass tangible items that may interfere with communication efforts.
How do emotional factors act as barriers to effective communication?
-Emotional factors like anger, sadness, nervousness, personal agendas, or a need to win an argument can taint objectivity and make communication less effective. These are referred to as emotional noise.
Why can language be a barrier even among people who speak the same native language?
