Communication styles reflect how we relay information within the message. When considering communication styles, think about the tone and content of the message and how it will be perceived by the receiver. Some styles may reflect a warm and hospitable feeling, while others are more clinical. Do not confuse styles with channels, which are how a message is delivered (verbal, written, email, etc.). Communication styles are classified using many different names and methods, and you will need to research three styles you wish to discuss in your paper.
