Silence is not necessarily negative, it can produce an eruption of will and power, or it can produce a serious deficiency and dis-synchronization with the world around you.
If you force someone for example to be quiet consistently for an extremely lengthy period of time, chances are he or she will either devise an immune system to balance the loss of communication independence and dignity, or if it is a child, the child may become scared of and for normal events and activity.
This rejection of silence or of an imposition of a pattern of silence by an individual or child should transcend every age group.
Hence silence can become “Deafeaning” not for it’s auditory damaging effects but for it’s physiological numbing and damaging effects. Organizational silence and numbness to nuances, depths, variations, and emotions in communication and communication patterns, which may sometime make total silence of a repressed person, or persons to be misconstrued as acceptance of a fate, collectively or individually.
Written communication in book form or verifiable online formats in business communication can serve to highlight company objectives, services, and competences. It should also serve to clarify patterns in procedure, ethics, and standard goals, but all this without a valid response and or feedback framework that’s fair, agile and responsive will jeopardize a company’s desire to communicate as thoroughly as possible, which may lead to physiological “numbness” and “Deafness”.
Hence while writing is an art form for those who love to write, books, essays, and every form of writing is an attempt to make you the reader “understand” and if I were to draw on a canvas a description of every one who has ever put pen to paper, they may “stoop, bend, increase their shoe height, sit down, fold, cross, lift or plant their feet”. Yet all every writer is saying is “I am at pains to make you understand” – no matter what theme or subject they are addressing.
Communicating by writing is one of the best ways to shred Deafeaning Silence
