Consider two misunderstandings you experienced when communicating with someone else at work, home, or school and describe both and then reply the following questions. Who was sender? Who was receiver? What was message? What channel was utilized to send message? What was misunderstanding that happened? How could misunderstanding have been avoided?
Describe what did you learn about communication process from this activity? What appeared to be major causes of misunderstandings?
Write meaningful misunderstanding rather than general or less material misunderstanding.
Use business or work-related examples rather than personal ones.
Recognize role of sender and receiver, like manager, client, peer, subordinate, vendor, and so on.
