Discussion
Discussion can play a critical role in communication by enabling the exchange of ideas, fostering clarity, and encouraging active participation. It promotes critical thinking, resolves conflicts, and supports informed decision-making by allowing diverse perspectives to be explored. Additionally, discussions build atmosphere of collaboration, impact relationships, and create opportunities for learning and development. By facilitating open dialogue, they ensure mutual understanding and help achieve collective goals effectively.
Timelines
Effectiveness of the communication proces will often depend on its time – not too early nor too late.
Awareness
One important role of the communication process is awareness raising—that is, ensuring that people become conscious of an issue, idea, opportunity, risk, or need. Communication serves not only to transmit information but also to shape perception, draw attention, and foster understanding. Awareness raising is often a first step toward further outcomes, such as knowledge building, engagement, decision-making, or behavioral change.
