Communication Barriers

I am working in a Japanese employer, although we have interpreter to immediately unriddle whatever communication barriers I admit that it is not always be an advantage.

Words can mean different things to different people. So for those who are working with different nationality like me, we have to always make sure that clear understanding of what you really implies most be done. Look the conversation as a duel rather than a two way fact finding or sharing process, if you are not agree on a certain statement, try to explain yours.

We can give our poor response if we listen to them poorly, so remember to always pay your attention to the other person you are talking to. There are no lessons or Human Services books who can teach you to pay attention, it is your own will. 


Listening can be a form of communication barrier. Listening is not just hearing words, it goes beyond a lot more meanings. It is important that you have to express it in body language, as action speaks louder than voice. On the other hand, being in silence can be in another form of barrier. It might be uninterested into others or concentrated attentiveness.


Don't hesitate to ask question.
