DEFINITION OF COMMUNICATION:

Communication is the process of sharing by which

messages produce responses.

Process: Communication is not an end product, nor is it static or stationary.
Communication is a dynamic, on-going process.

ways dialogue.

Message: It is what is in the communicators mind, it includes the verbal as well as

nonverbal component.

Response: It is the feedback the communicator receives from the audience. It could be
what the communicator anticipated, or it may be partially or entirely different from what
was expected.
