Talk Furbish to Me

Furby's speak "Furbish" until they are taught to communicate in English. Beginning a new job and learning the "lingo," or moving to a different geographic location and learning how to communicate can suddenly make you feel like one of these furry little guys.

Communication is only successful when both the sender and the receiver understand the same information as a result of the communication.

Some things to keep in mind...

1. What is your message?


2. Who is your audience?


3. How might the message be perceived or misconstrued (this is always a challenge because decisions are being made based solely on speculation)?


4. What are the circumstances surrounding your communications (such as cultural and situational contexts).
