Abstract
The process of transmitting ideas, information, emotions, feelings and attitudes in order to provoke a reaction on those who receive the message, is known as communication. Communication can lead to mistakes on how people of various occupations refer to other people in their inability to communicate in a right way, the lack of skills to listen presentations of their coworkers, or the unwillingness of subordinates to follow instructions. To solve this problem, this essay presents a design of a game called Eficom, which will strengthen and/or teach the foundations for an effective and efficient communication through a fun and recreational activity that involves the analysis of the fundamentals of communication.
