Ineffective Communication
Case 1: Today, the supervisor of a cake shop
received 50 cakes from the supplier. She is
so disappointed because she is sure that
she phoned to order only 15 cakes
yesterday. These cake cannot be kept
longer, so if they are not sold today, she
has to throw them away.
Case 2: An insurance company sent their
offers to a large number of customers.
Some of these customers were dead. So,
the offers made their family sad.
• Case 3: A perfume firm advertised their products
during the interlude of an international football
match because this is an attractive program.
However, their sales did not increase.
• Case 4: A company will rehearse a prevent-andfight-fire program and board of management will
send a list of employees who should be involved
in this rehearsal.
However, on the day of rehearsal, a manager
doesn’t receive the list, so he decided all 40
employees in his department stay there. This
caused higher cost for the company, so they
need to organize another rehearsal.

volume & pauses that convey meaning.
