The South Korean film 

Parasite made history at the 2020 Oscars when it

became the first non-English language film to win the Academy Award for

Best Picture. For his acceptance speech, director Bong Joon Ho said, “Once

you overcome the one-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so

many more amazing films.” 

Bong was trying to change the way people perceive foreign language films.

And he did. His words resonated not just with the South Korean audience, but
with moviegoers worldwide.

Not every speaker leaves a lasting impression on their audience. But imagine

if you could always speak with impact in your professional setting. 

Strong oral communication is one of the best skills you can have in the

workplace. Not only can you move, persuade and encourage others to think

and act differently, your speaking skills also help you stand out among your

co-workers.  

Let’s explore the importance of different types of oral communication you

need to become a competent professional.

What Is Oral Communication?


 

Oral communication is communicating with spoken words. It’s a verbal form of

communication where you communicate your thoughts, present ideas and

share information. Examples of oral communication are conversations with

friends, family or colleagues, presentations and speeches.


Oral communication helps to build trust and reliability. The process of oral

communication is more effective than an email or a text message. For

important and sensitive conversations—such as salary negotiations and even

conflict resolution, you can rely on oral communication to get your point

across, avoid misunderstandings and minimize confusion.


 

Importance Of Oral Communication


 

In a professional setting, effective oral communication is important because it

is built on transparency, understanding and trust. Your oral communication

skills can boost morale, encourage improved performance, and promote

teamwork. 

Here are some benefits of oral communication:

 It saves time by letting you convey your message directly to the other

person and getting their response immediately. 


 It’s the most secure form of communication for critical issues and

important information
 It helps to resolve conflicts with face-to-face communication

 It’s a more transparent form of communication as it lets you  gauge how

others react to your words

Types Of Oral Communication


 
There are different examples of oral communication in a business setting. You

need several oral communication skills for career advancement. Let’s look at

different types of oral communication:

1. Elevator Pitch

Imagine you meet the CEO of your organization in the elevator. Now, you

have 30 seconds to introduce yourself before they get out on the next

floor. This is your elevator pitch. It’s a form of oral communication where

you have to succinctly explain who you are and what you want from the

other person.  
 
2. Formal Conversations

These are common at work because you have to constantly interact with

your managers, coworkers and stakeholders such as clients and

customers. Formal conversations are crisp, direct and condensed. You

have to get your point across in a few words because everyone has only

limited time to spare.


 
3. Informal Conversations

These are conversations that you have with your team members or

friends and family. They are mostly without an agenda. You can talk

about your day, what you’re going to eat for lunch or discuss weekend

plans. These are friendly conversations peppered with light banter.  


 
4. Business Presentations
This is where you need to make the best use of your speaking skills.

Public speaking is an important skill to develop if you want to command a

room full of people. For this, you need to leverage Harappa’s LEP and

PAM Frameworks as well as the Four Ps of Pitch, Projection, Pace and

Pauses.
 
5. Speeches

Speeches are important in businesses like event management or

community outreach. In a corporate setup, speeches are reserved for top

management and leaders.

Arming yourself with effective oral communication skills will boost your

confidence, prepare you for challenging tasks like meeting and impressing

clients.

Harappa Education’s Speaking Effectively course is carefully designed to

teach you how to improve your communication skills. You’ll learn about both
oral and nonverbal communication with important frameworks like the Rule of

Three and Aristotle’s Appeals of logic, credibility and emotion. Persuade your

audience, deliver well-crafted ideas and connect with others with advanced

speaking skills.
The main idea of Business Management System is to give management the tools for
monitoring, planning, and controlling their activities and measure the performance of a
business. They also aim to put into effect continuous improvement processes in the
company. This system finds the principles of the organization's existence and is linked
closely to business success criteria. It is a multi-level hierarchy of different business
solutions that show how an organization that's profit-oriented will perform different functions,
such as marketing, sales, staffing, and purchasing to complete a task successfully.
Business Management Tactics
The functional group of a BMS finds what the tactical techniques and approaches are when
it comes to implementing business plans that are linked to their business strategies. Tactical
solutions should only be brought up during the decision-making part. They should be
executed based on the timeframes that are in the document for the business management
strategy. Extra business schedules can be formed and assigned to this tactical
implementation practice as well.
Business Management Tactics are defined as activities that follow the business standards
that were identified in the company's policies. They put into effect business tasks and plans
so they can meet the goals that have been prioritized.
There are also processes and guidelines in this functional group to develop business
management plans. The guidelines have practical instructions and directions to show how
decision makers can control all the tactical solutions. They include operations and
procedures that show how performers get daily tasks and activities accomplished. This
group also directs the staff towards the completion of business solutions and recognizing
implementation plans that are aligned with the management tactics.

Management Styles
There are several types of management that are common, including democratic, autocratic,
paternalistic, and laissez-faire. Democratic management style is used when employees are
able to give feedback or input on business decisions. Autocratic management lets the
business owner be the person in charge of making all decisions and leading the company
through the business environment. When the best work environment possible is created for
each employee, it's known as paternalistic management. Laissez-faire has the most
employee autonomy and lets decisions be made with little to no business owner oversight.
Traditional management is a hierarchy of employees, with low, mid, and senior-level
management. The manager creates expectations for the goals employees need to make.
