Being aware of the communication barriers will give you a guideline on how to make your communication successful and clear while avoiding miscommunication or misinterpretation. To ensure that your message is received as intended, the communicator must anticipate any possible barriers and overcome them prior to communication.

For instance, understanding that some people in your audience understand Arabic better than English or vice versa, should encourage you to create communication in both languages. This will ensure that either of these recipients will get a clear and concise message that will not be distorted by self-translation.

Being aware of common communication barriers such as lack of attention, interest, differences in perception and viewpoint etc., should prompt the communicator to seek feedback so as to ensure that your message is/was clearly understood.

 

The bottom line is-having knowledge about communication barriers and what causes them ensures delivery of a clear and concise message as intended by the communicator without being distorted by the above mentioned barriers among others.
