To a effective communication we have many barriers, it is dependent of the quality or nature the information we want transmit, some barriers are more common than others.
In fact are a number of possible barriers may result in an ineffective communication and generate problems to have good communication between sender and receiver.
Those can be, irritation, misunderstanding, mistakes or conflict.
Barriers for effective communication include some different points let explain one by one.
Technical noise, something happens every day with us, connection problems with your mobile signal or machines not working properly like fax and printers.
Physical noise, we working on a place where is very noisy and we cannot hear what are saying on one phone call, or one presentation where is to big the group and people are talking in same time, we cannot hear properly what is the message.
Absence of interest, sometimes during a presentation to show new product and the receiver believes that is not for him, they will feels is waste of time and will not pay attention in what are passing the message.
Poor listening, in a group where the people are not put down to listen what are saying to them, they will not concentrating to succeed what the message mean to have successfully communication.
Information overload, presentation where the sender try to pass many facts they can in short time, the receiver will not be able to understand most of his message.
Lack of understanding, if the sender use technical jargon or they have poor use of the language, the audience will not understand.
Psychological noise, a person at an interview shows interested on begin but when the interviewer start speak shows indifference.
Poor time, if you try to contact someone but on busy time they will be unavailable, or if you are in interview and talking about the company plans but the person knows the next topic is the rate they will not be interest.
Conclusion
The barriers can affected in many different ways the communication, in some cases we cannot avoid it but in other we can.
The sender should need to check all points before start to pass your message to avoid the audience not understand properly what they want to pass.
