Communication skills
"Steemit community and platform, today I'll be talking about communication skills๐. First of all, lemme start with the definition of communication ๐. Communication is defined as the passing around facts, thoughts, emotions, etc., between a sender and a recipient using different techniques like talking, writing, visuals, etc. ๐ฑ It's also about making what you're giving out understood to your audience ๐.
Let's look at types of communications:

- Mass communication ๐ข. This is passing information to a large number of people at the same time through socials, papers, broadcast, publications, and social media handles ๐ฑ. This is also called public communication.
Modes of communication:
- Verbal, also referred to as spoken ๐ฃ๏ธ. This has to do with personal meeting or one-on-one communication. Its advantages include being quick and timely; it helps understand the receiver's view ๐. Its disadvantages include it could be easily forgotten ๐ง; it can also be altered and twisted ๐ฌ.
- Written communication, also called documented ๐.
