There little things that

interrupt the free flow of communication and interfere with receiving of messages from the sender, this interruption are been called noise. There are different types of noise which prevent efficient communication.

1. Physical Conditions: Physical communication such as room temperature , background noise, and outside environment can interfere with the communication between the receiver and the sender. The case where this type of noise can exist is when there is any construction going on within the building, and it is considered as background noise. The machine sound can disturb the important meetings where things are discussed.

2. Filtering happens when a sender of a message has a particular set of values and experiences, the receiver has a another set of values and experience. They two see the world in a different perspective, this forms a communication barrier as the message is not received as it is supposed to. The case where this type of noise occurs, is when a manager and an employee do not have the same view on a certain case.
