    Solution

    To construct a coherent paragraph, let’s analyze the logical sequence of ideas:

    (C) "Communication occurs in both verbal and non-verbal forms, such as written, visual, and listening."

    This sentence introduces the concept of communication and its forms, making it an ideal starting point.

    (A) "It can occur in person, on the internet (on forums, social media, and websites), over the phone (through apps, calls, and video), or by mail."

    This logically follows by elaborating on the different ways communication happens, complementing the forms mentioned in (C).

    (D) "While the effectiveness of communication can be difficult to measure, its impact is hard to deny."

    This statement reflects on the importance of communication, setting up the context for a deeper look at its impact.

    (B) "According to one study, surveyed companies in the United States and United Kingdom with at least 100,000 employees lost $62.4 million per year on average due to poor communication."

    This conclusion provides a powerful example of the real-world impact of poor communication, reinforcing the idea introduced in (D).

    The order CADB smoothly introduces communication, explains its forms and mediums, highlights its significance, and provides a striking statistic to emphasize its importance.
