Communication is a great art, it reflects the speaker’s personality. When we’re attempting to get our message out to others, it’s a though we start with a giant blank canvas and we then begin to paint a picture, any picture we desire.Many people just assume that in such small canvas how can we fill different shades but an expert painter knows how to paint different colors with different brushes and can create a masterpiece.

The same goes with communication. There are many tools available but we need to be aware that how to use it just as the best cook knows how to make a variety of foods. The better you become at using these tools, the better you’ll be at communicating.

Communication skills have to be practiced to enhance them.

Let’s anylise the different ways of communication to improve it in the best way.. There are two categories of it i.e Verbal communication and non- Verbal communication.

Verbal Communication : Verbal communication shows the speaker’s intellect level, ability, and his research and study on the topic. If the speaker is a master in it then this credit goes entirely to his efforts. Practice and experience improve his presentation and makes his speech more effective and successful.

1. Words : Your words are

the master key and this is absolutely true that people judge you by the words you use, and choose your words wisely. Words have power. They have the power to move nations and they have the power to destroy as well. When you speak, use your words carefully. Avoid using negative words, which can generate disharmony among people. Use words that communicate positive values. Use optimistic words, words of strength. Make sure they are understandable with rich meaning.

2. Tone : Most importantly along with your words are your tone with proper pace. Just as while driving we need to change cluthes to ..The speed with which you speak creates great impact to the listener, fast and loud tone emphasises the important point of the talk which you’re discussing and is taken into consideration. And a slow pace is usually for a polite approach, it has long lasting impact. Same like we still remember the things what our parents have taught us affectionately and impulsively. Good rhythm and tone is an essential part of a great voice for that use your voice effectively for more fluent and dynamic speech.

3. Pace : Choosing your pace is also like using your volume in an effective way. Master communicators will draw their audience in by fluctuating their voice from very loud to a near whisper. The audience doesn’t even know that the speaker is taking them on a roller coaster ride of communication. We can shift and change volume, keeping our communication more effective. Just as change the gear of the car to balance the speed accordingly.

4. Emotion : while communicating, the emotions play a vital role.The key here is to show emotions without “getting emotional.” Emotion, if controlled, is a powerful and effective communicator. Emotions are very effective and an abstract concept. It creates heart to heart connection between speaker and listener. Our vibes are a reflection of our emotions. And the more positive our vibes are, the more positive and happy people we can attract.

4. Enunciation : To convey your message with clear words and proper pronunciation is the beauty of your speech. Distinct enunciation helps the audience to understand the speaker better and tends to approve his statements when they are clearly enunciated. Distinct enunciation and correct pronunciation are valuable aids to the enhancing of the communication of the speaker and to the creation of impression, interest, and attention on the audience. Hence, paying careful attention to your enunciation and pronunciation. Well, clear enunciation gives us a little “punch” to our communication. So enunciation can increase or decreases the speaker’s prestige. Work on enunciating your words clearly. The key is to get it just rightl so that your words don’t run together but do not over-enunciate so that you sound unnatural.

The above principles gives variety to our talk. If we just communicate in a single style then an audience will start anticipating the end of the talk of the speaker.They become prejudgmental about the talk and will start to avoid the speaker. In today’s world where each of us want the best of the best so just think of ourselves. Do we like to listen to people who speak at one speed, in one tone, with a boring vocabulary and without emotion? Of course not! Then we should make every effort to be colorful and effective communicators. And we can be—if we work at it and practice, practice, practice!

Nonverbal Communication or Body language : It also has a major impact on how well you deliver your message with clear action. As sometimes you have a lot of things to say but choose not to say them. That very movement you should have good command on your body language. That complete the sequence of your talk.

5. Your Hands and Arms : Hand movement and jerk make the talk very much comfortable and appealing. Hand expressiona convey the complete message of speaker no matter whether you have expressed it or not rather than just keeping your hands by your side will make you seem stiff and uneasy. Instead, use your hands to communicate. But keep it in mind that use in a proper way otherwise it will distract the concentration of the listener. The movement of arms makes an audience feel so close to each other and eventually the speaker wins the confidence of the listener. He can clarify his message which not only touches their heart but also inspires them to act upon it.

6. Your Eyes : The eyes can be a very powerful tool in communication. The old saying that “eyes are a reflection of your inner self” holds true in most cases. Our eyes also reflect our sincerity, integrity and comfort when communicating with another person. Which is why having good eye contact while conversing is the indication that the speaker has good control over an audience. How is eye contact related to events? Well, the eyes speak volumes and elobrate the point perfectly when words can’t fill that space. When you speak to someone, look at them. Give them your attention with your eyes. Listen to them with your eyes. Communicate with them in a way that make them feel that they are very important for him.

7. Speaking Position : When you’re communicating, especially while presentating, your speaking position, whether you are standing, sitting, kneeling, etc., can communicate a lot that makes an audience intimate. And sometimes give verbal pauses, which helps to keep the audience curious and makes them wait to see what happens next. This way the speaker engages an audience.

Last but not least, The secret for effective communication is that the speaker must consider and believe in his knowledge. This boosts his confidence and gives him immense self esteem. As a speaker you should take your audience on an emotional ride wherein the Speaker leaves an audience stunned with a long lasting impression.
