Circumstances where oral communication will be preferred;
- Where faster communication is required: Two or more people talking can deliver a message, discuss an issue, reach an agreement, or ask a question and receive an answer much more quickly than they could using written communication.
- Where immediate feedback is expected: When the receiver does not understand a message, he or she can ask for clarification right away.
- Where a message should be conveyed in an emotional way: When people communicate orally, the message consists of more than the spoken words. A nonverbal message accompanies every oral communication. Facial expressions, body movements, gestures, tone of voice, rate of speech, and voice inflection all add meaning to the words actually spoken. These nonverbal components help the receiver interpret the emotional significance of the message.
- Where human relationships should be established: Through oral communication, people working together are able to develop team spirit and a sense of mutual responsibility. By communicating with each other orally, people are able to improve each others morale
