Electronic communication

This is the fast way of doing things for example a file could be faxed to someone or the person could send the file attached to an email websites can also be used to give out information just think of social networking sites like facebook and twitter or online banking 

Think about the advantages and disadvantages of email for example it is fast but is it secure enough , and the fact it won't work if a computer has a fault but you can attach emails and other files and you can bulk send information can you think of any more advantages and disadvantages and jot them down  and do the same for texmessages cos they r gr8

loyalty cards like boots advantage cards are handy has they help marketing to be more effective for the customers as you know what they are buying and therefore the information that they will be interested in

radio frequency identification cards (RFID) allow you to track products or can be attached to cars so you can pay tolls automatically

sav navs - give you directions from satellites but you know that

Face to Face communication - scary stuff !

this can be formal and informal ad must involve oral communication but there will also be a degree of silent communication in body language and expression you have to follow protocals at meetings and there are more of them for formal meetings as you have to make minutes for those who where not there at the meeting so they can be kept in the loop about lots of the things that happened at the meetings but there are basic ones like listening to others ( sometimes)

An appraisal is a meeting between a worker and their boss to see how well they have done in the past year and to see if they have met targets and set new ones to achieve this is supposed to be  motivation 

the annual general meeting happens on a yearly basis as does an appraisal and this is a meeting between shareholders and the directors of a business to see how well the business has done and to see what else should be done in the next year and work out how to achieve these as well as hiring directors of the business
