Interpersonal Communication

Better communicate to succeed your career.

A career in one or more enterprises requires motivation and performance, to better grow and bounce in your professional life.

Good communication will also be a key to success.

What is interpersonal communication?

Interpersonal communication is composed of several messages that are:

* verbal such as voice and intonation,

* nonverbal such as attitude, behavior and gestures.

Your image already gives your entourage, a first major idea of ​​your skills for a moment "T", without having begun to formulate a single word.

This may be anger, sadness or anxiety. Gaiety and joy are more difficult to perceive, because we rarely move smiling. Thus the silence communicates with the person in front of you.

The elements of this communication

The main communication elements are:

* words and behavior, which when expressed are irreversible, it is just possible for you to mitigate them if you want to go back, as in a speaking in public or making a presentation.

* Dress:

- It represents a membership mode, compliance, difference of rules that generally has to adapt to the society for a better integration in the enterprise.

- A banker will not come to work in jeans, it is not ethical, as the creator working in the pub in suit and tie, he would be out of step with its industry.

To communicate we will have:

* oral communication,

* telephone: attention to the tone of voice when talking on the phone,

* writing: how to write: communication via email or write a note inform the reader on your general intellectual culture,

* gesture will convey messages according to your posture.

Conclusion

Interpersonal communication is based on the exchange:

* one is the transmitter,

* the other is the receiver.

This will be used in our daily whenever we are in relationship with someone. If interpersonal communication is used so good, it will help the individual to succeed his career.

Interpersonal communication, if left unchecked, is often spontaneous. However, it can be adapted to:

* target: we do not speak to his superior in the same way as his colleagues of work,

* content: promotion is easier to announce than a layoff,

* the situation: prepare his appraisal interview to ask for a raise will be different from the invitation to the potted retirement of the service's employee.

Public Career

Public or private sector, what to choose to better bounce!

For careers in the private, the answer to a job offer contrary to the public sector where we are recruited in principle, following the success of a competition corresponding to a definite position.

The career will therefore manage differently.
