Answer 1

• Present scenario where the sender is not clear in delivering a message.

Doing this involves effort from both the sender of the message and the Reciever.And it's a process that can be fraught with error,with messages often getting misinterrupted by the receipient.When this isn't detected,it can cause tremendous confusion,wasted effort and missed opportunity.

In fact,communication is only successful when both the sender and the receiver understand the key message that the sender is trying to get across.

When you succesfully communicate your message,you convey your thoughts and ideas effectively.But,when you don't the thoughts and ideas you are trying to impart do not necessarily reflect your true meaning,causing a communication breakdown and creating roadblocks that stand in the way of your goals-both personally and professionally.

• Dominant/hegemonic position
• Negotiated position
• opposition position
