First, identify the barrier. If you can figure out what the problem is, you'll have an easier time figuring out how to overcome it.
In social communication, very generally and very simply, people have to have something in common as a basis of communication, in order to make it happen smoothly. As an answer to how to overcome a social communication barrier, always watch people and try to find something in common between you and them. And be careful, that's a lot more effort than you think it is, because you have to stop thinking about yourself for a while and think of other people.
Ask questions and listen to the replies with an open mind. The challenge in communicating effectively is realizing that the barriers are you. Your expectations, your instructions, your follow up and your response to the situation, all influence the outcome. This is true while communicating with friends, co-workers, managers, bosses, children, wives or husbands. In order to get what you want, you must try to give the other person what they want; respect, understanding and positive acknowledgment.
Have a positive attitude towards communication.Work to improve your communiction skills by varying the use of communication channels and work to improve your listening and feedback techniques.
The main barrier to effective communication is language. If the two parties involved in the communication don't understand each others language perfectly then some degree of misunderstanding will take place. A second barrier is distance. In the days before the telephone and the internet it could take many days for a letter to reach its destination. In the Middle Ages it could take weeks. Even phone calls need to take into account the time difference between caller and recipient - no-one wants a call in the middle of the night. A third barrier is the reliability of the communication method used. Letters are not always delivered and phone lines or e-mail systems can be down or faulty, causing misuderstanding or delay. A fourth barrier is security. Some communication is secret. This involves the use of codes and cyphers (encryption) for the written word or scrambling for the spoken word in case the messages are intercepted. A final barrier is cost. The volume of mail in Britain increased enormously when the idea of a standard prepayment of one penny was introduced and had dropped off again since cheaper e-mails were made possible. Similarly voice contact by phone has increased enormously since the costs of telephone calls were reduced by the use of communication sattelites and other technology.
