Let’s go over the basic communication model. The model is a visual representation of how a message goes from sender to receiver.
Communication Model
Sender
The sender is the person who wants to deliver a message. Pretty self explanatory, right?
Encode
For a sender to transfer a message, they must first translate the message into symbols for the receiver (the one who receives the message). This means taking thoughts, emotions and images and translating them into something the receiver can understand. These symbols often include:
The process of translating these messages into symbols is called encoding.
Message Channel
After encoding the message, it’s time to communicate the message to a receiver. To do this, we must pick a channel for the message to go through. The channel is the type of medium used to transmit messages between senders and receivers. Examples of channels are:
Verbal
Written
Visual Media
Decode
Once the message is received by someone, it’s time for the decoding process. Just like a sender must encode messages to communicate, receivers must sense and interpret the symbols to fully understand the message. They then decode the symbols back into images, emotions and thoughts to make sense of them.
Receiver
The receiver is the person who receives the message.
Let’s connect it all.
Now that you know all of the steps of the communication process, it easily connects. When messages are decoded exactly as the sender has intended, the sender and receiver have matching perceptions of the message being communicated. When everyone is on the same page, effective communication occurs.
