Below is my list of the three great fallacies of communication from my experience:I speak so, I communicateIt is all too common to believe that all those who can speak can also communicate effec-tively. For effective communication, there is a need for preparation. I enunciate so, I communicateAn ability to enunciate or speak clearly does not necessarily equate to effective commu-nication unless there is a self-containing core message. It is essential for effective communication that the ideas shared has the very substance to convey what is intended and not just verbiage lost in fluidity, flair, and candour. Fallacies aside, in all effective communication, choice of words to define a problem or so-lution or achievement or failure is absolutely key to effective communication.
