What is communication

What behaviors does this person exhibit that make him or her effective?

As I thought about the many people in my life that I consider great communicators, one person specifically comes to my mind which is my husband who stands out in comparison to anyone else in my life. When communicating with others, he is a great listener, also has the skill to get people to listen to him and to change their opinions about some things, and he also does not dominate the conversation and allows others to participate in the conversation.

Would you want to model some of your own communication behaviors after this person? Why or why not?

The most important things that I would like to model from my husband is learning how to talk to people and motivate them to change for the best interest of themselves and to also learn to be a listener. If I could master these skills I may be able to assist others to make better decisions and to show them that I respect and care for them.
