Intrapersonal communication<\/b> is communication with ourself, or our internal use of things like language, images, and thoughts. It is important to distinguish this from inter<\/i>personal communication, which is communication between two or more people.\n<\/p>\n

Read Section 16.1 Intrapersonal communication<\/a> and
\nSection 16.2: Self-concept and dimensions of self<\/a>, in Saylor Academy (Ed.) 2012. Business Communication for Success<\/i>. (See page(s) 606 – 613 in PDF<\/a> version.). (You do not need to do any of the exercises.)\n<\/p>\n

Section 16.1 describes intrapersonal communication as self expression through a variety of different activities, in effect a multi-dimensional self. For example, daily activities that emphasise thinking include reflection, problem solving, imagination, and memory. Daily activities that emphasise feelings, attitudes, and values include self-talk, and social comparisons.\n<\/p>\n

Section 16.2 explores how we develop a concept of ourselves internally and how others perceive us. An awareness of the central role of self<\/i> in communication helps us to negotiate the relationships and social environment of our workplace.\n<\/p>\n
