Interpersonal communication

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

Interpersonal communication refers to the exchange of information, meaning, and feeling between two or more people. It encompasses verbal and non-verbal signals and shapes relationships in both personal and professional contexts. Effective interpersonal communication involves active listening, empathy, clear expression, and the ability to read and respond to social cues. It forms the foundation of teamwork, leadership, customer relationships, and all forms of collaborative work.
