My comment : Yes i do agree with above scenario Explanation: Effective communicators should always keep in mind that communication succeeds only in relation to the reaction of their receivers. When the receiver reacts with Common understanding and changes his or her behavior according to the intent of source effective communication takes place.
The first goal of business communication is that receiver common understanding is more important the message must be so clear that the reciever understand it as the sender means it to be understand for communication to be successfull the sender and reciver must achieve shared meanings suppose a supervisor send a e mail to a subordinate saying '' no one plans for a meeting like you do'' should the worker response or react with pleasure or disappointment? is the supervisor praising or critisizing?
For communication to succeed both individual sending a message and the individual recieving it must recognize the significance of senders signal in all communications systems sender and reciever have to have common understading about what passing between them.

a. Communication does not succeed. Me and you could. What is certain is that if we don't understand each other, failure is imminent.
b. If you want to improve communication, first remove the pompous terminology. People link pompous terminology as an attempt to proof superiority.
c. Making the statement personal brings in a certain humanity to it; it accounts for emotions other than just pure rationale.

I would put it differently...'If you and I reach out, we will be able to understand each other better.'

According to my point of view the affective communication should be always to achieve its desired goal in such way that both sender and receiver understand each other meaning and ultimately reach their desire purpose, we also know the massage should be clear and meaning full sense, precise and polite manners mean that receiver understand complete meaning, on the other hand In effective communication both individual sending a message and the individual receiving it must identify the significance of senders signal in all communications systems sender and receiver have to common understanding about what passing between them.
