This image displays a circular wheel divided into seven brightly colored segments, each representing a crucial communication competency. At the center, the text reads ‘Effective Communication Skills Wheel’ with the subtitle ‘7 Essential Competencies.’ Each segment features an icon and key points: active listening with an ear icon, clarity and conciseness with a megaphone, verbal communication with two people talking, non-verbal communication with a person using hand gestures, empathy and emotional intelligence with a head and heart, respect and open-mindedness with a handshake, and feedback with a thumbs-up and speech bubble. The background is a light abstract design with geometric shapes and subtle lines, giving the image a modern and engaging look.
