How We Communicate
// August 3rd, 2009 // Uncategorized
When we communicate we use more than words. We must be careful and loving. Some psychologists estimate that only 7% of communication is the actual words. A surprising 38% of the message is attributed to the tone of voice. The remaining 55% of what is communicated is credited to body language. Consider this example: how many different messages can be given by these four words . . . “What do you want?” Tone of voice as well as body language communicates more than the four words.
