This allows the audience to know who you are and why you are speaking to them. It sets the context for the presentation and helps the audience understand what they can expect to learn or gain from it.

Downward communication involves the transmission of information from higher levels to lower levels, such as instructions, feedback, and performance evaluations. Upward communication, on the other hand, involves the transmission of information from lower levels to higher levels, such as suggestions, grievances, and progress reports. Therefore, the statement that downward and upward communication are types of vertical communication is correct.

    The correct answer is Written communication. In written communication, individuals communicate through written words, such as emails, letters, or text messages.

When used together, non-verbal and verbal communication can provide a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of the message being conveyed, leading to better results in communication.

    A. Interpersonal Skills
    Explanation
    Effective communication requires interpersonal skills. Good looks, money, and a big social circle may be helpful in certain situations, but they are not essential for effective communication. Interpersonal skills involve the ability to understand and connect with others, listen actively, express oneself clearly, and resolve conflicts. These skills are crucial for building strong relationships, fostering collaboration, and conveying messages effectively. Without interpersonal skills, communication can be ineffective, leading to misunderstandings, misinterpretations, and breakdowns in relationships and teamwork.

Eye contact helps to establish a connection with the audience, convey trustworthiness, and engage them in the message being delivered. It demonstrates that the speaker is knowledgeable and believes in what they are saying, which in turn instills confidence in the audience. Eye contact also allows the speaker to gauge the audience's reaction and make necessary adjustments to their delivery.
