COMMUNICATION SKILLS – A PREREQUISITE FOR SUCCESS IN THE GLOBAL MARKET

Abstract

Communicating with others is an essential skill to move up on the corporate
ladder. Effective communication is all about conveying messages to other people clearly and
unambiguously with as little distortion as possible. Keeping in mind the present scenario
where mastery over the English language has become the main ingredient for good
communication skills, this paper has been prepared. The paper discusses three issues: a) the
advent of the English language into our country and the position English enjoys today, b) the
importance of mastering the basic skills of the language and c) the role of the teacher and the
student in mastering the skills.
