Giving and getting feedback can be both positive and negative in which both ways can be difficult to hear. It can even be difficult to understand depending on how the feedback is being given and received.

The relationship I have with my husband is comfortable, which fits under the definition of interpersonal communication. According to McCornack, “interpersonal communication is defined as a dynamic form of communication in which the messages exchanged significantly influence their thoughts, emotions, behaviors and relationships” (McCornack pg. 9). This relationship meet the criteria for interpersonal communication because we know each others boundaries and when we talk the overall message sent to each other effects our emotions and relationship. For example we like to cook together some times and when we talk we know not to criticize each other on how we cook or if we accidentally do something wrong. Another example could be when cleaning the house I know my husband doesn’t like to do the dishes and he knows I don’t like doing the laundry so we communicated and traded chores to help each other out. This resulted in a change of emotion (less frustration) and made it more comfortable for both of us.

It was said by Confucius “Tell me and I’ll forget. Show me and I’ll remember. Involve me and I’ll understand.” This is very true because people tend to forget things that they are not interested in. So if your interpersonal communication is good, they will be more interested in the conversation and will recall that information more precisely. For this reason, interpersonal communication has been studied and perspectives or views have been made to distinguish

After reading this first chapter, I realized how important communication is.

Interpersonal Communication is a crucial part of everyday life. People communicate in many different ways. It can be as simple as a nod to the barista at Starbucks or a "have a good day" at the drive-thru window while getting your breakfast sandwich. It can be as involved as participating in a job interview or a brainstorming session. Every word and every action, or inaction, means something. Even ignoring someone is communicating.

The assumption of the general public tends to be centered around the fact that relationships are not easy. Over many years, the field of Communication has proven this to be both true and false. Although interpersonal communication through relationships is not the easiest thing in the world, it should not have to be the hardest, either. Much like the general public, I have found myself bound by the constraints of the "hard relationship" faux pas. Now what this means can be based on several perspectives as well as extenuating circumstances; we all participate in relationships, but no two relationships are the same. Incidentally, a lot of miscommunication occurs between loved ones in these situations and not seeing eye to eye causes the feelings that create the illusion of a tough relationship. It is easy to talk about relationships as a whole, but that is another misstep that so many of us are guilty of. Looking at the big picture may be one of the main causes of miscommunication, rather than focusing in on each problem one at a time. To tackle what I feel has become one of the biggest problems in one of my relationships, I took a magnifying glass and started all the way at the beginning.

In addition, understanding different models of communication enable members inside and outside an organisation to depict different messages being provided by the employee or customer and develop their communication skills. The Shannon and Weaver model of communication was developed to show the effects of communication between two people (Kikoski, 1993). In the Shannon and Weaver model, a message is encoded (via a symbolic form) from a source (the sender) through a medium called a channel, and decoded (retranslated) by the receiver. However, the message can be interrupted by a process called noise and can result in discrepancy and sometimes negative feedback from the receiver (Bowman and Targowski, 1987). In response to the Shannon and Weaver model of communication, through the identification of any noise within the communication process, as a result of the manager level of attunement in communication skills, the encoded
