My typical communication habits consist around the fact that I am more introverted rather than extroverted. It takes a longer time for me to go talk to someone than it would for someone to come talk to me. The word “shy” is a word I do not like to be called but am often depicted as being. I have come to the conclusion that this belief is only for when I first meet someone. I love developing new relationship with friends, classmates, and meeting new people, but it is the beginning hump that I always have to try to overcome. From then on, I am animated, full of energy, and speak whatever is on my mind. I also find myself speaking to quickly for people to catch what I am even saying. I tend to do this when I am talking about something I think …show more content…
When I speak, I tend to speak quietly or do not put enough emphasis on words. Sometimes a sentence can sound like one word. I need to slow down, emphasize important words, and speak louder. I typically do not keep an open mind when having a discussion about a topic. I tend to have an opinion about a subject and stick to it, without allowing others to change my mind. I should be more welcoming to new ideas in a conversation rather than letting them escape my memory. I do not take constructive criticism well either. Being told that I did something wrong and telling me how to do it gets to my head. If I am going to do something, I am going to do it right, or not do it at all. Although I realize after the fact I may have done it wrong, hearing it from someone else will irritate me. I need to allow others to judge me and tell me what I did or did not do correctly. I can also ask my peers for feedback on something I was unsure of.
My third goal to accomplish this semester is the idea of self-concept, or self-appraisal. I lack confidence in myself. This is mainly due to past experiences and events. At the very beginning of my first high school speech my voice cracked when I said, “Hi.” I have a hard time leaving things in the past. Events like the latter tend to linger in the back of my mind, and because of that my confidence is lower than it could be. To help with
In my 18 years of living I have never been considered very talkative or vocal. My father would always tell me that talking too much could land you in a big heap of trouble so I refused to do so. He had a phrase, “One thing guaranteed for a person that talks too much is swollen lips”. Hearing that as a child was kind of funny to me, but as I have gotten older I now realize what he was interpreting. I have seen a lot of people get into altercations for running their mouth’s too much and swollen lips is usually the ending result. Although I don’t talk much, I believe I can hold a pretty decent conversation with someone I have things in common with. I use to avoid talking to strangers, but being put in different settings with nothing but strangers has helped me with that to a certain extent. I still wouldn’t consider myself outgoing, but I will get out of my comfort zone if I see a female I find attractive or need to express the way I feel about something; however, talking irrelevantly is not my
I tend to over analyze every situation and put too much pressure on myself to excel. I am a motivated individual who believes in working hard to achieve my goals. I can often get lost in a crowd and will often trust people too easily to a fault. I try to be friendly to everyone and I am not quick to judge. I am unselfish and try to put others before myself.

The TV series, which I have chosen, and believe to be one of the best examples of interpersonal communication behavior, is the American television comedy series called The Office. This outrageously hilarious comedy TV series portrays the everyday lives of office employees located in Scranton, Pennsylvania, a branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin paper company and is filmed in a documentary type style by a team of film crew members. The plot of this TV series revolves around documenting the lives, interactions, and interpersonal relationships of the manager, Michael Scott, and the employees that he manages, which include Jim Halpert, who is a sales representative and prankster, Pam Beesly, who is a receptionist, and Dwight Schrute, who is a high-ranking salesman devoid of social skills, as well as Stanley Hudson, Kevin Malone, and many other minor characters who play the roles of office workers, working in a variety of positions throughout the office.
Some points of good practice with communication are listening to the staff as they might
I can be intimidating. I have a hard time showing my feelings or affection. I find it very difficult to trust and am very private and guarded. I lack the ability to make those around me feel needed. I am too independent and don’t ask for help when I need it. When I am stressed I shut down and do not let people in. I do not talk about my feelings. I always act like everything is ok. No one ever knows when I am struggling. My nickname is “ice queen”. I can be controlling and not welcome change very well. I sometimes can lack self-control and have a difficult time remembering that I cannot handle conflicts in the professional world like I did and do on the
Communication is a two way process and is the basis of all relationships irrelevant of the nature of communication. There is an array of reasons why people communicate such as to develop relationships or to share information with one another. People communicate in order to reach out to one another and express feelings, emotions and their opinions. These different reasons stated, amongst others, are important in the work setting and no more so than as a practitioner working with vulnerable young
I believe I am easy to work with and I work well with others. I work well under pressure too. I have a genuine, positive attitude as well.

I am the type of person who always has a plan set up for their future, but I can also adapt and accept the changes that life brings. I have a creative side as well; I enjoy reading, writing and art.

I'm very articulate and confident in what I say. I love debates and tend to be quite overbearing with my opinions. I'm also a writer. I am very passionate about what I write. The stories that I write tend to not have a meaning. The story is meant to let the reader explain what happened, though not being sure of it, leading up to many themes. I'm a very cheerful person and I'm not as socially awkward. I try to be friends with everyone and tend to be overbearing on that concept. I'm that type of person who would say a compliment to a stranger with no
You are social and expressive. You are empathetic: you feel what others feel and are compassionate towards them. You are confident: you are hard to embarrass and are self-confident most of the time. And you are self-controlled: you have control over your desires, which are not particularly intense. Your choices are driven by a desire for connectedness. You consider helping others to guide a large part of what you do: you think it is important to take care of the people around you. You are relatively unconcerned with tradition: you care more about making your own path than following what others have done.
My personality hasn’t changed since I was born. I was shy when I was younger. I didn’t want to meet new people. I see all of the details. I keep track of time. I think logically. I plan things out in order. When I have to be home, when I have to go
Many different people have extremely different personality types such as, perfectionist, helper, leader, adventurer, and peacemaker. I am a variety of personalities from perfectionist to unorthodox. Due to the Jung Typology personality test, I am very extroverted and intuitive and I tend to get conflicted. Also, I am confident and sympathetic. I am extremely sociable and I enjoy the comfort of talking to friends. Even though sometimes I may be confused, I have the strength to straighten out. I have the kind of personality that will allow people to be who they want to be. I look at people the way they want to be looked at unconditionally. Last, I tend to get nervous and worried in tense situations. I have always been this way, but it goes away
As a part of my assignment to identify the styles and different skills of communication by studying Brian Krzanich actions and behaviour. Next part is to perform a critical analysis on the identified communication styles and skills by comparing and contrasting strength, weakness of a selected person.
I often get tense and feel over burdened when there is workload and too many tasks to handle. I often avoid the risk related activities; which is not a good trait. As I plan to be manager in future, I should always be ready to deal with risks. Sometimes when things do not work out properly, I get hyperactive and my behavior changes with the people around me. I shout at them and even do not listen to them, which is also not a good characteristic of my personality because a leader should have ability to manage and tackle tough situations calmly.
Two of the most prevalent forms of communication styles are direct and indirect communication; these two communication styles impact how members of a culture interact with each other (Morreale & Pearson, 2008). According to Craddock (2002), Kierkegaard, regarded direct communication, “as the mode for transferring information and considered it totally appropriate to the fields of history, science, and related disciplines” (p. 70). Direct communication can be defined as, “speech that specifically states and directs an action. When someone hears direct speech, they know immediately what needs to be done. There is no question about who is in charge, and usually no need for discussion” (Gaddis, 2006, p. 11). On the other hand, Kiergaard believed that, “the indirect was the mode for eliciting capability and action from within the listener, a transaction that did not occur by giving the hearer some information” (Craddock, 2002, p. 70). Unlike direct communication, “a indirect style of speech is not typically authoritative, rather it encourages input from the listener” (Gaddis, 2006, p. 11). The direct and indirect communication styles are often used in different fields, disciplines, and industries ranging from education, workplace, literature, and entertainment, to church services (Morreale & Pearson, 2008). For example, the population relies on the news media as the main source of information and the basis on which they form their opinions and voting decisions” (Fog, 1999, p.
