Task 2 P3, M1

Office barriers, like being in a large office, would mean that you would have to speak louder in order for your voice to reach the whole of the audience. Background noise can’t be helped in situations like construction work and the main road. That’s why it helps to make hand gestures in order to get your point across even with the noises that may distract the audience. Separators are like the office barriers. Where something is in your way, e.g door, desk. This would also mean that you would have to increase the volume in which you speak at.

 Emotional barriers have something to do with self confidence. If somebodies never done a presentation before, then it won’t be very professional compared to somebody who has performed loads of presentations in front of large crowds. There are two parts to the language barrier. The way in which someone speaks [Accent] and the language they use. If you had a strong accent you would have to try and hide it slightly to make sure that everyone can understand you clearly. Whereas if someone’s language is totally different then you would have to create some sort of translating tool/material to ensure that they can understand your presentation.

A way to over come language barriers is to have a translator there to translate to each speaker what you are saying this could occur when you are interviewing or being interviewed for maybe a foreign company. To over come the emotional barriers speak to the person in their own environment such as there home or somewhere that feels comfortable to them back ground noise is easier to avoid just by going to somewhere quieter to talk like a quiet room or avoid main roads if you are trying to communicate properly. Over coming office barriers can be dealt with an inside line just by having a code on the telephone to call someone on the other side of the office. Most barriers can always be dealt with few effective solutions.
