FACE TO FACE COMMUNICATION

Facial expressions such as smiles, frowns, raised eyebrows, pouts, and all the gestures we make with our face while delivering a message.
The message is reinforced with the help of these facial expressions and all these hallmarks help to show the receiver the importance of message.

                  MERITS:

ž  face to face communication provides the speaker much better opportunity for adjustment .A twist of the lips ,a frown on the forehead , a contraction of the facial muscles point out that your message is not welcome: change your tone and make yourself sound and look more considerate and sympathetic .these adjustment are possible only in face to face communication.
 

    LIMITATIONS:

žDifficult to practice in large sized organizations. face to face communication is extremely difficult in modern large-sized organizations, particularly  if their various units department are situated at different places.

žNot effective in large gathering. It is difficult to get a message across large gatherings. In the absence of a satisfactory feedback, his speech lapses into a monologue.

žIneffective if the listener is not attentive. A limitation which the face-to-face communication shares with oral communication is that its effectiveness is closely linked with the listener’s attentiveness.
