Communication Innovation



Communication is the way an individual may share information. It doesn't necessarily have to be verbal communication. For example, in the video we watched today showed a man setting a fire to get someones attention. Back then, that was one of few types of communication. This would be critical in relation to a business. So to get away from setting fires to communicate from a distance, we would need a much faster and reliable communication tool. (I'm just using fires as an example).


Many factors go into making communication more efficient and faster. One is cost; it has pros and cons. A positive is that, you will have to employ less people to get in touch with other businesses. Many people have to communicate with others companies, not just the head of a company. With less people, less stress and potentially less money spent. Another positive is, the speed and precision of communicating. We now have what is called the Six Sigma. Which is described as .999999 accuracy. Also with the innovation, we now have sms text, email conference calls and etc...


Innovation is finding a new way to do things better. The world continues to get better in communication. We are at the point where we can communicate through video conferences and this is a never ending continuum of innovation

"The newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relations between human beings, and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem, of what to say and how to say it." -Edward R Murrow
