From the supplier: Accountants and educators consider communication and interpersonal skills as as the way towards successful careers. A study has been conducted to analyze clients' view of the seriousness and frequency of potential communication barriers in external audit. Clients perceived credibility/background and hostility/conflict problems as being the most serious problems to effective communication. Communication barriers such as personality differences, 'know-it-all' attitude, 'either-or' thinking, resistance to change, and jumping to conclusions were rated the most frequent.
