Communication is widely misunderstood, and while this is perhaps especially truein STEM disciplines, STEM is not alone in their misconceptions. Outside of CommunicationStudies, Interpersonal Communication (IPC) tends to be treated as a personality trait (Okoro,Washington, & Thomas, 2017; Pert, 2019), and on popular career websites and in professionalcontexts alike, is most often defined in terms of “people skills,” “personal skills” (Doyle, 2021),or even “friendliness” (Indeed, 2021). IPC is also frequently discussed as a set of traits that areinherent to a person.However, the role of IPC in everyday professional communication is much deeper and morecomplex than cordiality; it is essential to functionality and effectiveness across disciplines

Of that, half the time is spent on writtencommunication – preparing proposals, reports, memos, feasibility studies, white papers,operating manuals, engineering specifications, business letters and responding to emails.
