2.1 – The most basic method for communicating information and knowledge is verbal communication. This is effective, but has certain drawbacks – it’s hard to monitor who has received the information, and almost impossible to ensure that our large and diverse membership all are aware of what they need to know. Written information is much easier to track and, if displayed correctly, can ensure that all reasonable efforts have been made to communicate the information to a wide range of people. 2.2 – To select the most appropriate technique and method you must first identify what the information is and how complex it may be – the more complicated it is, the more likely you are to need some form of written or non-verbal information. You also need to identify who needs to know this information, how many people you need to reach, and how important it is that they receive it.
If unable to communicate service users would be denied this right. In my role as a volunteer I must communicate effectively with all manner of individuals and I have to be aware of how my non verbal communication can be off putting to some individuals. For example, my height can intimidate, my accent can be misinterpreted as aggressive/authoritarian, my tattoos and clothing could be seen as a comfort to someone who identifies with that fashion. All of these issues can impact on communication with an individual who has specific communication needs. By ensuring that I am on same level by sitting down, and by speaking slowly, clearly and calmly, I can ensure that the individual is comfortable and happy to talk to me.
This question does not suggest that your audience is stupid or uneducated. As we saw in Chapter 1, there is a great deal of confusion today about such matters as free will, truth, knowledge, opinion, and morality. Many intelligent and educated people have fallen victim to ideas and attitudes that cripple their creative and critical faculties. In many cases, your audience will appreciate your insights only if you first help them get beyond their misconceptions. Is Your Audience’s Perspective Likely to Be Narrow?
I listen to my intuition to determine and make good choices but when you face certain problems, it is common to only see the situation from your perspective and easily overlook the other person or people’s point of view it. Therefore, when only considering the situation from your point of view, it can lead into more problems and nothing gets resolved. The highlight of critical thinking is to bring biases thoughts to light so they will not over power your decision making skills. Understanding my competencies will help me improve my critical thinking skills and understand what I already know when talking with someone who has less knowledge on a certain subject or topic that I do. I will be able to focus on what they are saying to have a positive or negative response during the conversation.
Communication is the interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by using speech, writing, or signs. A message is enclosed in a “package” and sent by the sender to a receiver by a channel or medium. Although many may not notice how complex and puzzling communication may be, philosophers and researchers devote a great deal of their time analyzing the complexity of communication. If communication is executed properly we find it rewarding and very successful in conveying what we feel, what we believe, and what we want. When the execution of communication is done poorly we find there are consequences.
In some cases, an anonymous person may try to disturb the peace by deliberately being inappropriate or by trying to intentionally anger someone for fun. Communication is a key aspect of how we interact with anyone, as mentioned previously, from something as small as a nod of thanks, to a full conversation. Nancy Langton, Stephen P Robbins and Timothy A. Judge(2010) in their text book “Organizational Behaviour: Concepts, Controversies, Applications” explain communicating as “the transfer and understanding of a message between two or more people” (p 266), and over half of the message is transferred through body language, and half as much from tone and the very least is actual content. The key thing about communicating online is body language and tone is lost online, with the exception of video technology, With just content of what different people say online, much can be lost in translation.
People are very self-aware and with just one mention of the self the mood in the environment can change. Since people are so insecure with their self-image our environment influencers (friends, family, enemies, media) have it easy to persuade us to do, think, and even buy anything they want us to. There are many different theories that relate to how people see themselves in the world. Some of these theories are: Self awareness theory, Causal Theory, Self Perception Theory, Looking Glass self, and the Social Comparison theory. These subjects will all be discussed below and put in perspective with relatable material to show proper examples.
Trustworthiness is an important concept that most people have different general understandings of. Some people have strict measures of trust whereas other people choose to listen to their hearts due to a general feeling about who can be trusted and who can not. Trust exists when it comes to romantic relationships, friendships, meeting someone new, interviewing someone for a job position, or buying something from a salesperson. Every role a person plays, every comment made, every conversation had, and every action displayed will determine whether or not a person can be trusted. When it comes to deciding whether or not to trust someone, one might ask him/herself, “Can I believe you?”, “Do I agree?”, “Do we have similarities?”, or “Is what you are telling me factual?” Trust is something that must be earned and trust can easily be lost, however, for this particular research, I want to shift the focus to trust after first impressions.
We wave, point, beckon, and use our hands when we’re arguing or speaking animatedly—expressing ourselves with gestures often without thinking. However, the meaning of gestures can be very different across cultures and regions, so it’s important to be careful to avoid misinterpretation. http://www.helpguide.org/mental/eq6_nonverbal_communication.htm . The nature of the gestures let the viewers including myself know that the male was in trouble and the female was clearly not too thrilled about what had
There are many different ways to generate ideas. You can use the problem-based concept generation. Using this format, the idea is generated because a problem exits. Using internal company records, input from technical and marketing teams, and most importantly, customer feedback, the problem is identified, and ideas are generated that may be a solution to the specific problem. Although this is a great way to generate ideas, it is not the ideal format for Chocoberry.
