Communication systems encompass the various formal and informal methods through which information is exchanged within an organization and with external stakeholders. These methods include written, verbal, nonverbal, visual, and technological communication, all of which significantly influence how businesses operate. The communication process begins when a sender observes an idea or fact and encodes it into a message, which is then transmitted to a receiver through an appropriate medium. The receiver interprets the message and provides feedback, ensuring mutual understanding. However, breakdowns can occur at any stage, making clarity and accuracy essential for effective communication.
