Improvement in Communication
Definition
The enhancement in exchanging information effectively either verbally or non-verbally between two or more people.
Analogy
Imagine communication as traffic on highways; if all cars (information) move smoothly without any accidents (misunderstandings), then we have effective communication. Improvement in communication is like upgrading a two-lane road to a four-lane highway, allowing for smoother and more efficient traffic flow.
