barriers to effective communication

Office barriers like being in a big office you have to speak louder to communicate with your listener which is a distance away. this also occurs with separators if there is something in your way such as a door then you really have to shout to get the right effect then background noise such as being next to a main road it is hard to communicate even with the person next to you and then harder for you to listen you can still communicate by using gestures to get your point across
Language barriers can be two kinds, accent barriers is when if something has a different accent and they can be difficult to understand because of this but they know the English language but then it can get really difficult when the person can not speak much English at all this can occur when you go abroad and you have to communicate with the locals. Then on to emotional barriers if someone is generally a shy person and they cant get their ideas across this could happen in an interview or even just meeting someone for the first time.
ways to over come language barriers is to have some like a translator there to translate to each speaker what the other one is saying this could occur when you are interviewing or being interview for maybe a foreign company and other ways to over come the emotional barriers is to speak to the person in their own environment such as there home or somewhere that feels comfortable to them back ground noise is easier to avoid just by going to somewhere quieter to talk like a quiet room or avoid main roads if you are trying to communicate properly. and over coming office barriers can be dealt with an inside line just by having a code on the telephone to call someone on the other side of the office. most barriers can always be dealt with you have just got to find out how.
