Answer preview
The knowledge of these principles of communication can be applied in preventing or reducing misunderstanding in future interactions. Among the ways in which I can apply the knowledge of these principles is by being specific in communication. When sending an email, making a phone call, or talking in a meeting, I can apply the knowledge of these principles by avoiding spending much time giving details that are unnecessary to prevent misunderstanding. This can be achieved by keeping it straight to the point. I can also apply the knowledge of these principles to maintain focus during communication to track the points I want to communicate in the message. This is because when one is not focused during communication, it is easy to forget to share important points on the matter being addressed, which can misguide the audience.
