If a person repeatedly says, “My message is clear,” but listeners misunderstand it, what should the person check first?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Whether the message is clear to the receiver
Clarity is judged by whether the receiver understands the intended meaning, not by the sender’s confidence. The speaker should seek feedback and check wording, sequence, examples, assumptions, and the communication channel. A louder voice, thicker paper, or more colours may improve presentation in limited situations, but none automatically corrects unclear meaning.
