Communications

This synopsis will detail the importance of communication, how it affects the individual and teams at all level on their performance. Communication is an important aspect that revolves around everything that we do, from being a supervisor to leading a team. Communication is accomplished through many different forms such as verbal and non-verbal communication. Such as written words, speaking and not speaking. The decisions we make regards information through the means of communicating with one another. As a leader, it is important to have the ability to communicate openly and clearly.

A team cohesion and the dynamic process revolves around members communicating. A team must be able to successfully communicate its intent and goals. Such as a sport setting, for a team to win a game or be effective at what they do, they have to communicate. I will use my personal and professional experience to discuss this topic. From the personal experience, it will be from a sports team aspect when I used to be a coach for an outrigger canoe paddling team on Guam. For a team to successfully paddle a boat and be in harmony, all members have to have the same vision. That is done by communicating first of what the goals and objective are for that specific team. Understanding the vision will unite a team together to win and take first place.

From a professional experience, I will discuss my military experience with communication within a team. Leaders must communicate effectively to come up with a decision or a solution. Sometimes this is done by developing different strategies, procedures and trail and errors. Communication eventually establishes trust within a team as it is a two way street. Being able to clearly communicate and have your audience or team understand it will help clear any misconceptions. As a leader, we must be able to communicate our expectations up and down the chain of command. Finally, once communication is established we must maintain that effectiveness through listening and understanding the different elements of thoughts. The results of this research paper will explain the benefits of communication as it affects all individuals and teams at all level with their performance.
