The most significant skill you will learn during your lifetime is the ability to communicate effectively with another human being.

1. An increased understanding of verbal and nonverbal communication in your relationships.
2. An improved ability to evaluate and employ methods for managing conflict in your relationships.
3. More ability to define and differentiate various personal communication styles.
4. The ability to examine and apply human communication theory and principles across a variety of situations and contexts.
