The Importance Of Interpersonal Communication In The Military

Interpersonal communication has always been something I have taken very seriously. While I was in the Army, I served as a military policeman. Understanding and practicing good interpersonal communication made the job much easier in the end. Most of the time, the people with which I interacted simply wanted someone to listen to them and care about what they were saying. On the other side of things, knowing and recognizing certain nonverbal cues was very helpful with interviewing people and sorting out scenes and determine what actually occurred. If I can remember correctly, we spent just as much time studying nonverbal communication as we did training in other subjects such as marksmanship and using less-lethal equipment.
