7 "C"s of Communication Checklist

 
Checklist to be used as a general guideline when communicating a (formal) message in any medium (written, spoken, or otherwise...)
 
  • Mark all that apply.
  • Is my message CLEAR? Will the purpose be evident to the audience?
  • Is my message CONCISE? Is it short, sweet, and to the point?
  • Is my message CONCRETE? Will the audience have a clear picture?
  • Is my message CORRECT? Are the facts straight?
  • Is my message COHERENT? Is it targeted and suitable to the audience and logical?
  • Is my message COMPLETE? Is all necessary info included (and nothing more!) and is there a call to action for the audience?
  • Is my message COURTEOUS? Is it honest and friendly?
