What is so great about communication skills? • This is exactly the question that started me off on this adventure. • Ever experienced Trembling hands or shaking knees or quivering voice when asked to speak to larger group?? • Do you feel at times you want to say something very important but just don’t have the guts to say it or you run out of words or you end up buying a wrong thing because you could not explain what you need to the salesperson? In our every day work we fail to speak?
- 3. • Ever wondered why it happens??? Or few of us might have an answer, which is “COMMUNICATION”. But what is it?

So here, I am to answer your questions about communication. • If the answer is, Yes to the most of questions then there are problems in communication that we need to address. Are there solutions to these problems? • The answer is YES, YES and YES!!!
