A Short Note On Interpersonal Dynamics And Business Organisations

When working with case two and three focused on the human and the political perspective of management consulting, respectively, the value of identifying the power base and understanding the patterns of dependence and interdependence within the client organization became evident. Case three particularly called for an understanding of the political and human factors, since the presentation was intended for the actual client and not for the consulting mentor as was the case in the second assignment.

The first chapter, “A First Look at Interpersonal Communication”, defines what interpersonal communications is and its different modeled process. According to Martin Buber, there are three different types of communication. The first is I-It communication, in which we treat others as objects (students are referred as ID numbers), the second is I-you communication, in which we don’t fully engage with people but consider them more than objects (Salesperson asks if we need help or not). The last one is I-thou communication, in which people deeply understand each other and communicate thoroughly. According to the book, the definition of interpersonal communication is selective and systemic

After reading the first couple of chapters of the textbook “Interpersonal Process in Therapy”, I was able to find a deeper sense of appreciation towards the “counseling” profession in regards to the interpersonal process approach, the working alliance (client/therapist) and the process of honoring the client’s resistance. As I found myself learning more about the importance of the therapeutic relationship with the client, it was exciting to learn the recommended questions on page 12, in regards to identifying schemas, themes (internal working models) within the client. Not only are these questions being asked to the client, but the therapist must ask themselves the same questions as well. Although I am sure there are other ways to identify problematic relational patterns during a session, I believe these set of questions are a great guide to lead in that direction along with strengthening the therapeutic relationship as well.

When studying Business or other majors in most universities in the United States, every student must endure a recurring theme eventually. In some way, shape, or form every student is exposed to at least one Communication class as a general requirement. Most students ignore the value in these lessons due to the ignorant belief that the information is too obvious or unrelated to their career. The business world is one of these careers that exemplify the importance of communication studies. The movie Office Space humorously illustrates workplace communication etiquette, as well as, overviews of interpersonal communication through a hierarchical structure. According to Friess, “many organizations have programs that focus on assimilating newcomers to processes and behaviors of the organization and, perhaps, implicitly on encouraging newcomers not to challenge existing practices” (Friess, 2013).

Almost everyone in her/his life is able to see how some friends are very close to each other or how the couples seem to be so great together. As I read in chapter two “ Interpersonal communication” the topic of Relational Paths was attracted me and remained me with an old situation. In our life, the relation that we make with other people has many meanings and takes different forms to define. For example, there is private and public relationship. At that topic, I want to share my situation with my old roommate in the first semester of fresh year. We were both lived in the same room and our relation was simple and not close. For example, we did not feel comfortable of sharing anything or speak about any personal situations because we did

Dynamics in the workplace involve interpersonal relationships. These relationships are extremely important because they are the fundamental part of the workplace. Business operations defines the basic dynamic. In the banking industry, there are many different levels of operation. I quickly realized that many of these levels do not work in the same building. For instance, the Vinton County National Bank has 17 banking centers located throughout southeast and central Ohio. It is not uncommon for employees to work out of more than one branch. This includes all levels of the business. I was trained at the main branch and have worked at two additional branches during my internship. Although

Upon parking the car where several other cars were also located I began to walk towards the side of the all brick building towards the entrance door. While walking on the sidewalk I crossed paths with a several of people also leaving the same event saying how amazing the show was and giving their opinion of the artwork. Once I entered through the doors the first thing I notice was the warm feeling of the atmosphere with the interior brick and white walls, dim lighting, and people talking with one another about the piece in front of them with light music playing in the background. After signing my name in the guest record journal and picking up the art show catalog I read the artist’s statement. I was personally touched about her reason deciding to

The title of chapter Nine is called Understanding Interpersonal Relationships. In chapter nine is talking about ways to understand interpersonal relationships among two people. In chapter nine, a couple of materials stood out to me about understanding interpersonal relationships and those were the four elements of interpersonal relationships and the nature of interpersonal relationships and sources of Initial attraction.

Imagine meeting someone for the first time and only having less than ten minutes to talk to them. How much can that person really learn about their acquaintance and how much can the acquaintance really tell this person? Does it seem reasonable for the listener to diagnose this person with having a severe illness or even cancer after only talking to them for less than ten minutes? According to Caroline Parkinson, health editor of BBC News, physicians are not required to offer appointments lasting at least ten minutes anymore (1). Physicians and surgeons now have the flexibility and capability to make capricious decisions when it comes to deciding on how long the appointment can be and the amount of patients seen every day. By allowing doctors and surgeons to use their clinical judgement on a case to case basis, patients are at risk of not personally connecting with their doctor. Interpersonal is the behavior between people in any encounter (“Interpersonal, adj”). Connection is a personal relation of action; often having to do with people (“Connection, n”). As a result of societal changes with time intervals for appointments and the money rate doctors receive after examining their patients, patients are uncertain if their doctors truly care about both their physical and mental health.

As stated above, my group was comprised of people from different ethnic backgrounds, each with his/her own ideologies and perspectives. The challenge here was limited communication due to language barriers. English is used as the main language for communicating across almost all forums, including classrooms. Regardless of this, it became more difficult for us to communicate effectively simply because some of the members had a hard time deciphering what we were conversing about. It could have been that some of the requirements for presentation were confusing or some of the English phrases and terminologies were not conversant with them. However, we devised a mechanism where we integrated the
