Communication

Sometime, when we want to communicate something to somebody, we will use a language. BUT, as we know language is one of the tools to communicate with somebody. Instead using a language to communicate, we can use body language, we can use signage, or signals .... like Red Indian.... If we realize, language can become a barrier if a person can't understand the language that we used.

I still believe, diagram/image/picture can become a good tool to communicate. Maybe, it's more effective... why?? Sometimes, it's easy to remember people's face than his name.... Sometimes, it's easy to explain/tell a story from a picture than describing it using words....

That's why, I still prefer to use diagram/picture + additional wording when I do my work.... it some sort like mind/idea mapping approach.... at least can exercise our left & right brain ...

Let's try to do it in OSH Management.... it already started actually, that's why there is an OSH topic called HAZCOM (Hazard Communication)... let the ball rolling
