If a message contains so much information that its main point gets hidden, which principle of the 7 Cs of communication is not being followed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Conciseness
Conciseness means communicating the necessary information without unnecessary repetition or detail. If excessive information hides the central point, the message is not concise and the receiver may struggle to identify the intended action or idea. Option B is therefore correct. Courtesy concerns respectful tone, while body language and active listening are different aspects of communication rather than the relevant 7 C here.
