leaders don’t necessarily hold or occupy a management position. Simply put, a leader doesn’t have to be an authority figure in the organization; a leader can be anyone.

I think the leader because he is being followed by individuals who are looking up to him, he needs to guide and develop the followers, whereas the manager makes sure things are being done according to the expectation.

Thank you for the invitation.

To be a Leader or manager is not the criteria.  Today it is audio typing (listening and typing) and shorthand viz pitmans or american shorthand (letters dictated and typed)henace it is more verbal than written in actual sence it is written.  The purpose is to convey to the other the basis of the information.

Communication is effective and efficient when it is in writing or it is verbal in nature.  It can be a memo or a letter (both) serves as a record for the files and for action to be taken.  It should be dated and logged in the receiver book for a signature to be taken so that letter or memo is not lost in transit.

Communication is legal in any form and can be recorded.  It is also a responsibility on the receiving end to action it once it is received and be accountable for it.

Hence communication is concise, correct, accurate, specific, relevant, person centred and time sensitive.

The more urgent the matter, the quicker the discussion or dialogue is completed.  Effective verbal or spoken communication is dependant on a number of factors and cannot be fully isolated from other important interpersonal skills such as non-verbal communication, listening skills and clarification.

There are many other subtle ways that we communicate (perhaps even unintentionally) with others, for example the tone of our voice can give clues to our mood or emotional state, whilst hand signals or gestures can add to a spoken message. In written communication the sender and receiver are more distinct.

Verbal Communication. Verbal or oral communication uses spoken words to communicate a message. ... Improving your verbal communication skills can help you to foster better relationships with your coworkers and maintain a large network of contacts that you can call on when necessary.

Verbal transfer of information can be performed, orally or in written form. Oral Communication is the oldest means of communication, which is most commonly used as a medium for the exchange of information. It involves gathering or disseminating information through spoken words.  Written communication is planned and organised form of information sent to inform the other as the sole purpose.

thanks for the invite.  verbal or in writing is not confined to either leader or manager alone.  the manager can be a leader in his respective team or a leader is not necessarily a manager.  either of the two, verbal and in writing are both tools and techniques for effective communication though the former is popularly used depending on the urgency and time constraint.
