Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as good communication skills?
Broadly four things: speaking clearly and to the point, writing so the reader understands first time, listening actively enough to check you have understood, and adjusting tone and detail to the audience. Non-verbal signals such as eye contact and body language are usually included too.
What is the difference between communication skills and social skills?
Communication skills are about transmitting and receiving information accurately, including in writing. Social skills are broader and cover navigating relationships — reading a room, building rapport, handling conflict. Someone can write superbly and still lack social skills.
