The dictionary defines communication as "the imparting or exchanging of information, ideas or feelings between two or more people".  In purely mechanical terms this transitional "exchange" is a relatively easy task,  However, whether the two or more parties have really communicated or increased their knowledge, or understanding as a result of communicating is far less certain.  This program looks at the art of talking and listening - that is how communication can be orchestrated to create a genuine two-way experience that can be of high mutual value.
