A speaker's style of communication is also very important
in making sure to communicate effectively. "Speaker" and "audience" are really terms
that fit any situation in which one person wants to get their point across to one or
more other people. But the circumstance of the communication is a primary key to its
effectiveness.
For example, when you are attempting to
convince your friends of something, would you use the same language and phrasing that
you might, if you were stopped in your car by the police? How about in conversation
with your parents? Or the admissions committee at a college you want to attend or with
an employer interviewing you for a job you want? Each of these circumstances requires a
different tone, which might require a completely different approach, different word
choices, and a different manner.
So, the audience itself,
the speaker's relation to it, and the circumstance of the communication are key elements
in whether the communication will be effective or not.
