My strength in communication and challenges

My strength in communication is verbal communication. This is obvious as my writing is not as good as my verbal communication. In verbal communication, the speaker can be expressive through their speech but it is different for writing as it requires the ability of being clear, concise and expressive such that the writer’s mood will be clear in the sentences. Even though verbal communication is my strength but there are challenges too, as I am not persuasive, therefore there are instances where people do not understand and will not use the idea that I have said. To close friends, they will find that listening is my strength as I would listen to what they say and would help them out. I feel that this is dependent on what the other party is talking about and what are their expectation, there are instances where the other party is looking for a sense of concern and somebody who can understand them as well as the situation they are in. This may result in thinking that you are ignoring them or giving them a chance to label you as “not taking me as a friend” when they think that you are not concern about what they are talking about. But to friends that I know their situation and what they really need, I will be able to pay more attention to them and try to cheer them up or encourage them. Therefore, verbal communication is what is my strength as compared to written communication, but listening is something that would be required in most cases and it depends on who the opposite party.
