What are some good ways to improve communication skills?
BySome of us may be smart, but when it comes down to the real world, Good communication is the key to sucess. Why with today's use of computers it seems that people are lacking this skill more and more by the day! Is there any hope for tommorows future?
i was quiet, to improve my communication skills i put in my headphones with my music on and tried to talk to everyone in my family and it forced me to talk loud so that was one improvement. =)
but the best way to improve communication skills is to practice them! oh and i found that simple words ensure understanding and clarity. big words make communication harder.

The best way to better communication is simple: practice, practice, practice. Many people are so used to simplistic internet lingo that it is hard to communicate professionally. Reading books is also helpful to increase vocabulary.

I agree with you. You don't see kids playing outside today like their was when I was a kid. They really are missing a lot if they don't limit their time and enjoy their life.

The problem it seems to me that, myself included, people's attention spans are so much shorter than in the past, and this is obviously affecting interpersonal communications…
In terms of improving communications skills, it starts with listening, unplugging, and being distraction free, its the basis of communication. Also people respond better if the medium is more direct (a direct, face to face question as opposed to an email message).
Make sure to fit the way you present whatever it is you're presenting to the target (you're not going to want to get all technical with someone who wouldn't follow you)
I think another big thing is just pay attention to non-verbals (nodding and such to show their interested in what you're trying to say, and vice versa to show you have an interest)
