This week’s assignment was very
interesting to do. Performing the three self-assessments on my communication
styles was important to learn where I can improve on my communication. It was
not surprising to learn that I was mild when it came to anxiety with communication.
Communication does not bother me but every now and then I would prefer not to
talk if I do not have to. When first doing the aggressive communication
assessment I was surprised but then took it again and then realized I did the
assessment wrong. The most surprising part was what I learned from my coworker
and mom taking the assessments about me results were. My co worker thought I
was more confident in my communication than my mom thought but both agreed I
was a strong listener and nonaggressive. I think this assignment proved that
people communicate differently with different people.
Alysse, I also find it a good exercise to reflect on our communication style through the lens of others. Like you, I was reminded about the things I can improve on.
ReplyDeleteAlysse,
ReplyDeleteI agree we all communicate differently with different people but I don't believe that anyone one of stays assigned to one particular level of anxiety or aggressiveness. I think depending on the situation we all display characteristics from more than one level, which is why we communicate differently with different people.

Alysse, your post is very interesting, sometimes we do not realize our own strengths and weaknesses in communication until someone else sees it for themselves and that is definitely what I learned.
