feedback that the receiver will give to the sender.
How can a leader tap communication as a means for motivation? This is
through the leader’s choice of words be it written or verbal communication.

choice of words.

conveys positive message. By doing so the leader immediately creates upon his
subordinates a clear and positive visualization of the output that he wants to
have from them.

and it can even positively shape their mindset. Hence, the leader should ensure
that his positive communication technique is properly digested by his
subordinates.
If positive communication technique is successfully employed by the
leader. Feedback will come by means of meeting or even surpassing the workers targeted
goals.
