CJ 550 6-1 Discussion: Effective Communication Methods

Review the following common avenues of disseminating information:

• Email
• Memorandum
• Face to face
• Public address
• Conference (training)

In your initial post, discuss which of the above avenues of disseminating information you would feel the most comfortable using and which you would feel the least comfortable using, and explain why. Which would be appropriate for a specific audience?

In your responses to at least two of your peers, explain at least one advantage and one disadvantage to the method of communication proposed by your peer. Also identify ways to counter the disadvantages, whether that be a supplemental method of communication or a different approach.
