Clinical and imaging findings after antiviral treatment in cats with presumptive neurologic feline infectious peritonitis: 9 cases (2020-2024).

Communication is an exchange of information between two or more people, during which an alternation between interdependent processes of speaking and listening is expected; it is a generally spontaneous and automatic act, both in the social and professional spheres. As with most habitual activities, communication tends to rely only on natural skills, automatisms developed throughout life, instinct, and improvisation. Hence, the possibility of improving communication skills is not always considered or known, which can be done with the help of qualified professionals, providing greater quality in the interactions between the speaker and the listener. In most speaking situations, there is little awareness of the communicative attitude, which means that the speaker is unaware of the additional information that they may eventually be passing on to the listeners, beyond the linguistic content of the message, through nonverbal communication, vocal frequency and intensity, speech rate, pauses, and modulation. However, consciously or not, it is a fact that communication interferes with the quality of relationships built throughout life. In a professional role that depends on good communication performance, a conscious development of this competence becomes necessary, given the importance and high degree of visibility involved in this context. Career advancement does not directly depend on communication competence, but it is configured as a soft skill, a valued and expected socio-emotional skill, especially in high-level management positions, and can positively influence professional careers.
