Constant organization effort is needed to overcome the barriers which are
un consciously built by different people in the organization
Periodical review and reorganization of communication network is also
needed to insure that information reaches people in time
Organizational systems are the management’s responsibility within the
organization
The responsibility for overcoming barriers to personal communication and
insuring the success of every communication activity falls upon the senior and
the better trained person
Personal barriers can be overcome only by making a conscious effort and
by training for better communication

careful with the use of language and by using
word which have clear meaning
To reduce miss understanding when
communicating with people from different cultures
,these role may be useful
1.It is better not to assume similarity until you are
sure.
2.Before communicating , try to feel your self in the
other’s role , values and frame of reference
Overcoming Communication
Barriers
3.Working in other cultures means
understanding the host’s conception of
greetings , timing, hygiene, negotiation,
agreement, politeness, personal space,
gestures, meal etiquette and closure
4.Improving communication is the responsibility
of all educated persons
Removing Personal Barriers
1. Your message should not be too lengthy and
dis-organised . Use of poor verbal and body
language can also confuse the message
2. Barriers in context tent to stem from sender’s
offering too much information too fast . When
in doubt here , less is often times more.
3. You need to work to understand your
audiences culture , making sure you can
convince and deliver your message to people
of different cultures
4. Amusing aids are also useful in maintain the
attention of the audience and for relieving the
tension of the speech
Removing Personal Barriers
5. Plan speech-Yes. Short and sweet. The
narrative- Every one loves story and stories
can both instruct and convey the message
6. Rehearsal. There is no substitute for
rehearsal . You can do it in front of a mirror or
in an empty theater
7. Relaxation.If you get nerves just before the
show, either concentrate on controlling your
breathing or welcome the extra adrenaline.
Conclusion
• Once the speech is over and you have calmed
down, you should try to honestly evaluate your
performance . Either alone with the help of a
friend in the audience , decide what was the
least successful aspect of you presentation
and resolves to concentrate on that point in the
next talk you give .
