Introduction:

Being able to communicate well is the most crucial and often underrated skill  both in the context of formal and informal context. All relationships, be it business or personal rely on our abilities to convey the message clearly and concisely, expressing exactly what we mean and in an appropriate manner taking into account the context of the situation and the people, we are dealing with. A huge part of successful communication, that helps build strong relationships in business, is being able to listen actively as much as reading the signs from the person or group we are in communication with.
