The 21st century is an age of information and knowledge. In such an age, interpersonal communication plays an increasingly important role both in the society and in a corporation.
Why is interpersonal communication so important? There are some reasons contributing to this new trend. First, it helps people to understand each other better and clean up misunderstanding. For example, in a family, communication makes the family members get closer owing to the mutual understanding. Second, it helps people get more information and knowledge. Students can learn more effectively if they can communicate more with his teachers and classmates. As for leaders or professionals, they need more information which largely depends on their communicative channels. Third, without the interpersonal communication, our life would become a desert lack of emotion and friendship. Last but not least, communication between people makes our life lively, interesting and lovely.
In a word, human beings, as social animals, have to communicate with each other, the importance of which can never be overemphasized.
