Interpersonal Communication Module Analysis

Communication takes place in any and all locations, intentionally and unintentionally, and it can be positive or negative. Many of our personal traits and character qualities can affect how we communicate with other people, and how they communicate with us. Recently, I had an experience that further proved this point to me in a very real and tangible way.

When this assignment was given out, I instantly knew exactly what relationship I wanted to analyze: my ex-boyfriend’s and my relationship. It might sound like an odd relationship to choose, seeing as he is an ex, and it might not sound like a good starting point, but let me first say he is one of my best friends right now.

* Body Paragraph #3 - Differentiate appropriate levels of self-disclosure and emotional intelligence in various relationships.

She does a great job asking clarifying questions to ensure she accessed the correct loan.

Communication is important whether it’s through Wrike, email, phone or in person. I think its best to speak to someone in person, particularly when questions arise, rather then write all questions in Wrike or email. This helps with building relationships with colleagues. For keeping all important project information in one place where all vested parties have access to, I do like using Wrike. If any relevant conversations take place, I will summarize the information there for all to see.

Communication can affect many aspects of a conversation. As a team member, you have to be able to communicate effectively with others in order to work on a team. Yelling and being belligerent, can cause major conflicts if you use them within a group professional setting.

Mrs. Kvalo feels strongly that leadership must be physically present within the building. “If you want to lead, you must be present and visible,” Mrs. Kvalo states (personal communication, April 11, 2015). During passing periods, lunch periods, and at the end of the school day Mrs. Kvalo positions herself in a visible location. She believes that being in a consistent location, provides a sense of well-being and safety for the staff and students. Additionally, she attends a majority of after school activities and events. It is not unusually see Mrs. Kvalo dress in the school colors and cheering on our schools athletic and performance teams. As she stated in our interview, “I’m our biggest cheerleader!” (personal communication, April 11, 2015).

The process of working on this paper and project felt odd, since we were all had different time schedules, and there was a moment where I felt our communication with each other was faulty. I became somewhat nervous about the process. However, I have worked on other projects for classes were the communication was absolutely zero and that made me feel extremely terrible, working on this project felt easier than that project. Anyhow, there were some struggle mainly due to everyone’s divergent schedules, but we pulled it off. What I learned about interpersonal communication is that communication with others can be difficult, but when we work together, it seems like a thing of beauty. What I learned about myself was that I like to know what is

December 31, 2016 about 8 o’clock I got a text from my friend. It wasn't unusual because she always text me this late but this conversation wasn't like any conversation we had this conversation was spine chilling. She text me and said “Hey lamia can I use your Facebook for something” me being a good friend I am I gave her my password and thought nothing else about it. I was on the phone with my bestfriend when I get some messages from my friend,Kelly, that said “Wow” so I texted back and said “What?” But I never got a response little did I know this would be the end everything would change from the moment on. As days went on she started acting different by looking at my messages and not texting back. I saw her at the store and spoke to her

Intervention: MHS reviewed the previous session. Client reports that she has been doing good and has not gotten into any trouble or arguments with her mother. MHS educated the client on expressing her feelings in her home with her family and reactive behaviors. Client reports a situation that made her feel unhappy and upset with her mother. The sadness was due to her mother taking her brother side on a disagreement the sibling had. The client said her other was upset at her but not him and that’s not fair. MHS allowed client to speak freely about the situation and asked follow-up questions. MHS instructed her on effectively expressing her feelings. MHS educated client on ways

Hello, I called two days ago to register for class and while on the phone with a person from Kaplan I registered for a class called Interpersonal Communications. The problem I am having is that a person on the phone signed me up for another called called History of Psychology, which she stated was filled; however, she also stated I would be able to have a seat in the class too. The class has not shown up on my secudale, so I do not know the day or time of the seminar because I am not registered. Thanks

A simple interaction between two people seems very basic, yet there are many things going on during the interaction within each of the participants. When I greet my daughter after she comes home from school with a simple ”how was school?” and “do you have any homework?” it seems very straightforward. On one level I am concerned whether or not she has had a good day, and what schoolwork does she still need to do, she could simply react with good, and yes or no. There is also something deeper, because she is family I want to help if her day was not good or celebrate if it was good, and also work with her to get through any homework. She may or may not realize these things, but her responses would bring a reaction that she would play

During week one I flipped through material from week two and three, specifically chapter 6: Interpersonal Communication and Conversations. I discovered the section on feedfoward messages and phatic communication caught my attention. It stated that “small talk” opens the way for “big talk.” I also realized that chapters 3 and 5 Listening in Human Communication and Nonverbal messages coincided with small talk. I was never really into small talk or trying to hold a conversation, because I didn’t know how and was afraid because I didn’t know what to say. I continued reading chapter 6 and ran across a section called “How Do You Small Talk” and tested myself. Of course my scores were bad so I made this my challenge.

I mostly worked 4-5 days a week at the airport during my summer, winter, and spring breaks. My shift was about 9 hours long because of the variations of departing time each day. During school, I was an on-call employee and needed fill in when another employee could not come to work. The fun thing about working as a cashier in a gift shop in General Ford Airport was that most of the people I talked to were travelers, and some carried interesting stories and jokes with them from other parts of the world. Because I talked to a spectrum of people from different social background, race, ethics, and age, I was able to enhance my interpersonal skills with different people.

For this assignment, the skill which I have researched and developed a plan for improvement is “Self-Monitoring”. By definition meaning, self-observation and self-control guided by situational cues to social appropriateness. A high self-monitor person can adjust their behavior according to external environmental factors and shows a fairly high adaptability, these people are more sensitive to environmental cues, they can behave differently depending on the situation, whether it be public or private roles. On the contrary, low self-monitor like myself can not disguise my true nature and attitude in variety of situations. Now, I’ve chose to improve on this skill is because of the score of the self-monitor skill questionnaires issued in
