It involves: 1. Self-talk: Thinking, reflecting, or reasoning with oneself. 2. Internal monologue: Verbal or non-verbal thoughts, feelings, and ideas. 3. Self-awareness: Recognizing and understanding one's thoughts, emotions, and motivations.  Interpersonal Communication Interpersonal communication is the process of exchange of information, ideas and feelings between two or more people through verbal or non-verbal methods. It often includes face-to-face exchange of information, in a form of voice, facial expressions, body language and gestures. The level of one’s interpersonal communication skills is measured through the effectiveness of transferring messages to others.  Dyadic Communication Dyadic communication involves only two participants forming a dyad. One speaker and one listener come together to exchange thoughts, ideas, opinions, and information. The role of speaker and listener are not fixed, they are interchangeable.  Small group Communication Small group communication refers to communication among three or more people who interact verbally and nonverbal, perform certain informal roles with respect to one another, feel a sense of belonging and collaborate to achieve a desired goal.  Public Communication Public communication is different from dyadic or small group communication in that one speaker addresses many listeners, collectively known as an audience. There is no interchanging of the speaker and listeners roles. Many public communication events are formal.  Mass Communication Mass communication is any above human verbal interactions carried out with the aid of mass media technology. With the advent of internet and World Wide Web, mass communication now includes social media, which allow for the use of technology by everyone.  Organizational Communication Organizational communication refers to the communication that takes place between people who are working towards common goals within an organization. It consists of the interactions that take place for the purpose of working together towards these goals or conducting business in general.  Intercultural Communication Intercultural communication is the exchange of concepts, traditions, values, and practices between and among people of different nationalities and ways of life. To make the exchange more meaningful, there should be a deeper understanding and awareness of what makes various nationalities different and uniques, but also similar and familiar. Types of Speech Styles TABLE OF CONTENTS Intimate style Casual style Consultative style Formal style Frozen style  Intimate Style It is a non-public speech style that uses private vocabulary and includes nonverbal messages.
