    Communication requires the exchange of messages between a sender and receiver. For communication to be successful, there must be understanding between the parties. The communication process involves a sender encoding a message and sending it through a channel to the receiver for decoding. Feedback from the receiver in response to the message is also part of the process. Noise can interfere with effective communication at each stage.
