The Purpose of Communication
These are excerpts taken from our missionary training class on Sunday, June 7, 2009
The primary purpose of communication is to understand. This is the same concept that teaches it’s not who is right but what is right.
Most people communicate by seeking for agreement. This is the concept of who is right and not what is right.
Think about the last conversation you had with someone over something that you didn’t agree on. What position did you come from, trying to get him to agree with you or did you first seek to understand his point of view?
