Barriers to Effective Communication Paper
Communication enables human beings to interact in a meaningful way. It is hence a vital component of coming up with the meanings of situations so as to derive the intended conclusions (Golden, 2009). The process of communication and its components, the difference between hearing and listening as well as the formal and informal channels of communication in the criminal justice organizations will be discussed in this paper. This paper will also discuss the various barriers to effective communication and come up with strategies to overcome them. Lastly, this paper will describe the process of communication and its components as well as the differences between listening and hearing in effective communication.

Problem-solving, understanding others opinions and exchanging ideas with others are all benefited by good communication skills and the ability to allow communication to flow. When one observes communication, it is apparent that there are three parts to communication, verbal, non-verbal, and Para verbal. The verbal refers to the content of people messages, the way people word sentence and what is meant by what one another is saying. The non-verbal refers to the body movements and the message that is send is also known as body language. Lastly, Para verbal is the tone in which people say what people say and the volume used while communicating (Wallace and Roberson, 2009). When communicating people tend to over use words and try to make themselves appear to be smarter than they are and this leads to a communication that does not flow. The party on the receiving end of the conversation often find themselves lost and not understanding what is being said, and this hinders the flow of communication. A person who speaks loudly is often thought of be upset of
