"a moment in the continuous process of communication."

Surprisingly, from my personal experience, their are many people out there that have difficulty with this task. Whether it be verbal or nonverbal communication, some people just do not grasp the concept or feel the need to grasp the concept of effective communication. In the workplace, it is pertinant to have effective communication skills. Whether it be with a fellow coworker, a superior, a subordinate, or a client, it is necessary to be able to communicate your thoughts clearly and effectively.

For a professional writer, it is even more important to be able to communicate or write effectively. A professional writer needs to be able to relay proposals, discrepencies, and other messages thoroughly, clearly, and effectively to various peoples. To do this they need to have a good understanding of the topic at hand. Second, they need to be able to send the message in the appropriate minor, whether it be through written memo or document, email, or verbally. Next they need to be able to confirm that the reciever understands the message and is able to replay with their thoughts, feelings, and knowledge.
