The Process of Communication in the Workplace

Communication is one of the most important aspects in a working environment. It is also a necessity for a long successful career. Proper communication does not always come easy and can take time to perfect. A person needs to know how to adapt the way they communicate both verbally and non verbally depending on the situation and the other participants. In a workplace it is necessary to develop a good relationship with your co-workers as well as your superiors. Doing this is not always as simple as just being nice or working hard. You need to learn how to communicate by expressing yourself clearly. In the lives of professional writers and editors communicating is essential for success. Professional writers do most of their communicating by documenting their needs and wants. They write what they are looking for in other people such as co-workers as well as what they can bring to the table. It is important for writers to communicate in the workplace more then any other part of their lives. A lack of proper communication can lead to failing a task or being thought of as not doing your job. Communication is done to administrate and let others know how you will go about completing the task and the process that will lead you and the rest of the organization to the so called promise land. Communication is not like taking notes or recording information that encompasses other parts of some professional writing careers, however it is documenting information to provide to equal peers.
