Dr. Kumapley's Interpersonal Skills

Listen - It is important to listen carefully so you can respond to what people say.

One of the reasons people communicate is to understand each other. Understanding is a big part of communication as you have to understand what people problems may be, but also to take on board their views and opinions on the situation to be in a position to hopefully sort out their underlying problems.

-clear speech-in order to help people to understand you are saying, speak clearly, don't cover your mouth with your hands or turn away from the person.

There were a number of good and effective things that came from encouraging the male to see the issue more positively, but the main one was getting him to accept help for his problems.

I managed to turn his feelings and thoughts into more positive ones so he could focus on the future more clearly and not dwell on mistakes in the past.

He may not share his feelings like anger, fear, happiness with his teachers or parents.

I am often very engaged with speaking with people and have a hard time taking a step back and looking at the overview of what is being said. I deeply empathize with people and am often focused on the immediate and do not see the deeper meaning. I need to practice taking a step back and more of an objective view of the discussion.

I personally, have to first accept that I too am not perfect; my past and current methods of communication and listening skills have not worked, and I need to be more open in order to welcome change. One important step that can be made involves common courtesy; do not speak when someone else is speaking! This is something that was taught during early stages of development, yet it is often ignored during adulthood because of a false sense of entitlement that ones’ opinions are more important, and that is not true. As Petersen (2007) has stated throughout his book, there is often a sense of urgency or a need to solve problems or interject solution even when it is not required or asked. The idea that another person may only be seeking a listening ear is bypassed completely. Moving forward, I think it is essential that I create my own TLC (talker-listener card) that I can take with me and use as a stepping stone to changing my flawed listening and communication skills. Because I am a visual learner, this will work perfectly in helping me stay focus on my role in the conversation. Whenever I feel the need to interject my opinions, I can look down at the card and acknowledge if it is my turn to speak and even if it is remember what my duties are; if the problem was not mines to begin with then my job is not to solve it but rather be an effective listener in order to help the other person develop their own

Throughout my time at John Glenn, I participated in as many activities as I could from sports to music classes to academic teams. As I progressed from each grade, I gradually began learning great lessons from each activity I took part of. One of the important lessons I gained knowledge of was communication; I was only able to take part in so many activities because I communicated and talked to every single one of my coaches and supervisors telling them my schedule. With my future plans as a physical therapist, I will have to effectively communicate with patients about the therapy they need and other coworkers to collaborate the best way to help the patients. Alongside communication, I gained the understanding of organization. Being organized

I would ask if they can feed him, doing some enjoyable activities such as cards, or even being there for emotional support by sitting and talking to him. Lastly, I would instill any religious ways that are important to him to help with accepting his health condition.

Whether we agree or not, with other’s views, it is important that we are respectful and listen to what the other person has to say. We also have to make sure to ask for clarification if we misunderstand what the other person is trying to share. If we feel that an argument is weak, we should ask the other person to provide us with more information. Having good writing and communication skills helps us avoid fallacies. As stated in (Think, p. 157), we should “clearly define your key terms in presenting an argument. And expect the same of others. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you are unclear about the definition of a term or what someone else means, ask the person to define the term or rephrase the sentence.” It is vital to be clear on both sides of the argument because otherwise the whole argument would be useless since there is obviously a

Jim Anderson developed a 6 week training program on listening and communication skills to improve management at a large pharmaceutical company (Northouse, 2013). Jim decided to train the middle level managers from research and development first. The managers are highly skilled, but skeptical of the value of the seminar. After the third week, Jim begins to notice problems. Attendance has dropped and the attendees are frequently late or leave early. Jim is unsure how to turn the problem around.
