Interpersonal skills encompass communications between ____________ or ____________ people, including verbal and non-verbal communications.

Interpersonal skills encompass communications between ____________ or ____________ people, including verbal and non-verbal communications.

• A. Three, more
• B. Two, more
• C. One, two
• D. One, more

Answer: (B)

Interpersonal skills involve communication between two or more people, including both verbal and non-verbal cues. You can’t have interpersonal communication with just one person, since at least a pair is needed to exchange information or cues. A choice that starts at three would omit two-person interactions, and one or a phrase that includes one would be incorrect because there’s no other person to communicate with. The correct concept covers two people and any number of additional participants, reflecting real-life conversations like a caller and dispatcher or a small group discussion, with attention to tone, pace, and body language as part of the message.
