After Reading this article, it brings to my attention the impact of communication and how critical thinking aids in providing effective communications. According to the white paper by IDC in 2008, it tells me that organizations in the US and UK have incurred great losses due to poor communication and employee mismanagement. Thus, organizations should have structured and well-defined communication channels from the lower levels of the organization till the top levels. Subsequently, Employers should be getting proper communication skills training so that it helps them to understand the employees even better and also lowers the chances of miscommunication.

As much as how communication is important, critical thinking is what emphasizes the process of conveying our thoughts and feelings through communication. The main objective of critical thinking is to avoid brain fog and give clarity in your thoughts which gives rise to effective communication. Great leaders and effective managers have great critical thinking skills which enables them to communicate with clear thought and reason. It also helps them to think rationally and eliminate ambiguity in their communication.
