Communication Strategies
- Communication strategy is a plan or technique communicators use to ensure a successful communication process.
Types of Communication Strategies
- Nomination: The opening and establishing of a topic; example: "Jasmine, may I talk to you about our science project?"
- Restriction: Limiting the participants' contributions to a conversation or discussion; example: "If you had to choose just three words to describe yourself, what would those be?"
- Turn-taking: The process where a participant stops speaking and yields the floor to another to speak; example: Vanessa's and Hazel's exchange on design choices.
- Topic control: Main or assigned speaker guides the discussion to maintain flow without changing topic; example: "That's a good question, but it's no longer connected to our topic...."
- Topic shifting: Intentionally or unintentionally changing the direction of a conversation; example: Ryan's question about watching a basketball game.
- Repair: Fixing violations in a communication; example: "The meeting is going to be on the 25th... oh, I mean the 24th of May."
- Termination: Ending a conversation; Example: "I really would love to talk more, but I have a meeting in five minutes. I'll call you later, okay?"
