Effective Verbal Communication

'In order to be effective, approach any conversation situation that is important to you with a definitely formulated purpose'. Know why you are entering into a conversation. Is it to be social? make an impression, be polite etc. Be genuine as the listener will know if you are trying too hard or being false.


If you become bored with the conversation it will show, so make sure you find interest in what is being said and have ideas of your own.


Adapt your material and your manner to the person (or persons) with whom you are talking. Find out what interests the person you are talking to, possibly before you meet him. A quick chat to someone before a meeting can often result in some information that you can use in the conversation. Prepare well for formal occasions.


Perhaps have at the ready, some interesting material for conversation. If there is a lull you can relax everyone by telling them about an experience you had e.g. the latest film and how it related to something you were involved with at work or home etc.


Have some definite comments to make. A particular view about a subject will always lead to further discussion. You can add to other people's points and make that discussion part of a learning process as everyone exchanges views.



Have lots of interests and usually you will be an interesting person!


Remembering someone's name makes them feel happy.......it is often difficult but it does help, especially if you have to introduce them to someone else in the future.


Try to sense the mood of a person or group, wsrach body language, expressions and tone of voice.
90% of any verbal act involves non-verbal action!



Be an active listener. An alert face and good body posture tell the other person that you are interested. Eye contact is essential.


Hand movements often help a description, but wsrach for those nervous fiddly movements that cause distraction. They may be a habit or just caused by the situation.


The speed of your speech may fluctuate. Wsrach out, nervousness often causes speech rate to increase and hesitations can occur as the thoughts become disorganised. The problem is compounded when you are asked to repeat what you have just said.


There is no harm in a pause, relax, take a breath and compose yourself. If you have stumbled, smile and give a genuine apology, it will allow you time to think about the rest of your conversation.


In a crowded room shouting may be the only way to be heard, but often clarity of speech helps the listener to understand you more effectively.

Verbal communication in a relaxed situation allows for free flowing of conversation as the speaker and the listener. The volume is soft to moderate and there is opportunity to interject (interrupt and speak an idea or response). Laughter and other pauses in speaking occurs. Example: talking on the phone with a friend.

Communication in a tense situation- Volume is increased, swearing or sarcasm can occur and less listening occurs between the speaker and the audience (listeners) occurs.
Words are stated in staccato (short and succinct).
This type of communication can be one way with orders or instructions rather than sharing of ideas or thoughts.
Example: soldiers in battle requesting battle support.
