❇️ Interpersonal communication skills
♦️ Listen Up!
You may have a million - dollar look and mouth a million worth words, but if you do not have ears for your audience, then your soft skills are pretty much a bummer. Remember, effective communication begins with effective listening and one of the best ways to make the most of it is to belt up and listen. Listening is deemed as one of the crucial parameters of all interpersonal dealings. Not only does it leave you with a fair idea of others' feelings, views, opinions and ideas, it also encourages others to revert to you with concentrated attention and zeal.
♦️ Get A Grip!
You may possess the daintiest of demeanors and may be the suavest of talkers, but if you cannot connect to your audience and appreciate their views, you are definitely on the losing end. One of the most endearing traits of successful interpersonal skills is deference. If you cannot respect others and make them feel comfortable, you will be deemed as a schmuck who blows out lots of smoke. The cue is to pay attention to people and make them feel worthy.
♦️ Mind Your Body Language!
Your body blurts out oodles about you, so you better mind what it says! Body language is one of the crucial parameters of non - verbal communication and an effective instrument of interpersonal communication. Imagine being turned off a job or a deal just because your body language did not respond convincingly or worse did not back your words! So, you better buck up your tone, posture and gesture to convey the right message.
♦️ Be On The Ball
Handing criticisms is an impressive quality, but can be easier said than done! It is easy to bump into people with different opinions and ideas. But, that doesn't really have to bog you down. Remember, criticisms can be constructive too. Just take criticisms with a pinch of salt. Who knows it may be aimed at your betterment! The mantra is to adapt to the situation and learn to toy the dynamics of the conversation. Also, while handing out criticisms, make sure you do it tactfully, without offending anybody's sentiments. In all cases, stay calm and preserve your dignity.
♦️ Stop Being A Pushover
While it is good to be perceived as a nice guy, understand that being treated like a pushover at the expense of your career, confidence and interpersonal relationships is not worth it! Stop being a walkover and assert your worth by learning to say 'no' and expressing yourself ardently. Remember, you may have the skills and abilities, but if you cannot stitch a few words to assert your worth and make yourself appear valuable, then your deeds and feats are useless. Asserting is a sign of the winner! So, roll your tongue and speak out your worth.

♦️ Use of “wish”
👉 Let's start off with the easy part. ' I wish to' can mean the same as 'I want to' but it is much, much more formal and much, much less common.
👈 ساختار I wish+ to+ verb به معنی خواستن است و معنی آن مثل I want to می باشد.
✅ I wish to make a complaint.
✅ I wish to see the manager.
👉 You can also use 'wish' with a noun to 'offer good wishes'.
هم چنان wish را می توانید همراه با اسم ها نیز استفاده کنید.
✅ I wish you all the best in your new job.
✅ We wish you a merry Christmas.
👉 Notice that when you want to offer good wishes using a verb, you must use 'hope ' and not 'wish'.
به یاد داشته باشید که زمانیکه بخواهیم برای کسی با استفاده از یک فعل چیزی آرزو کنیم، باید hope را استفاده کنیم، نه wish.
✅ We wish you the best of luck.
✅ We hope you have the best of luck.
✅ I wish you a safe and pleasant journey.
✅ I hope you have a safe and pleasant journey.
👉 However, the main use of 'wish' is to say that we would like things to be different from what they are, that we have regrets about the present situation.
معمول ترین استفاده wish برای این است که بگوئیم می خواهیم چیزی متفاوت از حالت فعلی خود باشد. در این حالت همراه با wish از فعل گذشته استفاده می شود ولی معنی آن در حال است.
✅ I wish I was rich.
✅ He wishes he lived in Paris.

❇️ Different styles of communication
♦️ Assertive Communication
The assertive style is believed to be the most effective and healthiest style of communication. It is the way humans express themselves naturally, when their self - esteem gives them the confidence to communicate without using manipulation and games. When we use an assertive style of communication, our objective is to work out mutually satisfying solutions and as such, we communicate our needs clearly and in a forthright manner. In this case, we know our limits and reject any attempts to be pushed beyond, just because others want something else from us. However, it is surprising to note that assertive style is the least used style of communication.
♦️ Aggressive Communication
The aggressive style of communication always involves manipulation techniques. Aggressive communication intends to manipulate people into making them do what we want, by using tactics such as, inducing guilt (hurt), intimidation and controlling the other person (by showing anger). This style of communication may be covert or overt, though the intention is always to get our needs met. There are a few arenas where aggressive behavior is demanded, including sports and war. However, aggressive communication doesn't work in a relationship for a long time. Interestingly enough, aggressive sports also rely heavily on team coordination and rational coaching strategies.
♦️ Passive Communication
The passive style of communication is based on compliance and is aimed to avoid confrontation at any cost. In the passive communication mode, the communicator talks very less, questions even less and actually does very little. Passive communicators just don't want to rock the boat for the fear of having to sail through rough waters. They believe that it is rather safe not to react and better to disappear from the scene than to stand up and get noticed. They hate being involved in a war of words or a heated argument.
♦️ Passive - Aggressive Communication
The passive - aggressive communication style involves a lot of strategizing and intends to avoid direct confrontation. Passive - aggressive communicators believe in getting their way through manipulation (aggressive). This style is rather sneaky and devious, where the intention is to make the other person suffer without any direct attack. It includes politics and rumor - mongering. Passive - aggressive communicators are self enhancing, though they are not very straight forward about it. Though such people may appear honest, the underlying comments are sure to confuse the people around. This style is definitely not considered one of the best ways to communicate.
