My Writing Strength

Being able to communicate effectively builds trust, respect, enhances learning and accomplishes goals. Within my job role the level of communication I have to uphold has to be one of paramount importance.   I have a role of great responsibility dealing with clients and their families or advocates, internal staff and external agencies.   Therefore, my communication has to be clear and concise whilst I am conveying instruction and information. I consider communication to be successful

I have some strengths and weaknesses as a writer that I am aware of, but honestly it is not an easy task for me. My only strength in writing is my thought process, not the actual writing itself. I have never considered myself to be good in the subject of writing, but I always try my best.

The ability to communicate is one of the key factors to have a successful business. You could offer an excellent product or service, but if you’re unable to promote your services and communicate effectively with clients and co-workers the potential for growth is limited. The principle areas of communication are: Purpose, Style and listening.

Effective communication improves the quality of life of people. It is essential that efforts are made to enhance communication, time is made to listen and to

All of these things - diction, details, language, syntax - must be woven seamlessly together to create a sound essay. That is hard work, hard work that I did not want to do. I love writing, but I struggled more than I thought I would and feared that my lack of creativity would write the essay instead of granting me control. But before I could take control of actually writing, I needed to decide what to write about.

Xcom285 has taught me many valuable assets that I can use in my future, but I believe that the most valuable thing that I have learned is that communications is not just talking. Communications is about listening and writing as well. It is important in business communications to understand that to effectively communicate one need’s to tune into everything that is going on around him or her. This means that he or she needs to understand the audience, the purpose of, and the most effective way to deliver or receive the message. When discussing resources businesses use to effectively communicate, I learned other methods of

“Effective communication occurs only if the receiver understands the exact information or idea that the sender intended to transmit. Many of the problems that occur in an organization are: the direct result of people failing to communicate and processes that leads to confusion and can cause good plans to fail” (Clark, 2015).

The best way to get better at something is to practice and have peers critique your style and fundamentals. As a student, I have my professor and my fellow peers to proofread and critique my writing. With these corrections I have learned I have many new strengths and weaknesses in my writing since before I started school at COTC. I have also been given many different types of resources to help improve my writing.

In conclusion, managing communication in the organisation is important so as to perform basic functions. Managers should be effective communicators with high levels of fluency and professionalism and must be aware of the communication cycle to achieve team goals. Effective communication within the workplace like in the company’s technical office keeps the team involved in the delivery of customer focus which increases commitment to the organisation and make for a better relationship and understanding within the team. An effective communicator understands the communication process using the appropriate communication channel such as verbal, non-verbal or written communication. The correct use of the process helps to uncover barriers and determine effective preventive steps to avoid those barriers. Furthermore, within the communication cycle, it is essential to get regular feedback, which also helps evaluate and improve the communication process which in turn can be used as a basis to develop personal development plans, identify communication strength and weaknesses

My middle school writing career, I would say was pretty successful. I’ve written about many things, but my favorites were when I wrote narratives preferably fictional, these are always the best to write about, because it sparks up creativity and it gets the reader really interested into the stories. I like reading these sort of stories and that’s where I get a lot of my ideas from. I think in writing my strengths are creativity, punctuation, and attention to audience. My weaknesses are the process of starting a writing (analysis and argument) because at first I’m always doubting myself about what I wrote, but after I get the hang of it, it becomes easier and I can write it more smoothly.

On a scale to rate my writing ability I would rate myself a five. I believe I have trouble with sentence structure and I often find myself composing run-on sentences. My vocabulary level is adequate compared to others at my level of education. My spelling through, is laughable without an ability to spell grammar without a spell check at my disposal. I have no confidence in my capability to use correct punctuation, commas are a big problem for me as well as semicolons. I do not think I would rate my writing ability below a five because social media has enabled me to see other people’s writing ability.

Communication is the conveyance and flow of ideas from one person to another. The exchange of information takes place through letters, words, symbols and nonverbal behaviors. It involves the transmission of ideas from the sender to the receiver. Communication is effective only if the receiver fully understands the transmitted information. Many problems and failures occur in organizations due to poor communication. Objective and goals fail due to misunderstandings in the organization. Effective communication provides a chain of understanding to all participants in the organizational framework. It promotes the flow of information both vertically and horizontally.

Effective communication can be in non-verbal, verbal or written form. There are several factors that the sender of the message has to take into consideration and understand in order for that to happen: understand what they are trying to convey, the audience receiving the message and how the audience will perceive the message.

As you now know, writing is not just something you do in an instant out pour of energy when the essay deadline starts to take shape as an impending occurrence. Such a last-minute procedure usually produces an awful methodical and unclear essay, because it destroys the scheme of writing as a process, and center of attention only on the product.

It is commonly assumed that the younger a person is, the less educated they are. This idea is perpetuated in many different areas of life, such as with social issues and in the job force. While it can be accurate in some cases, this shouldn’t be a hard and fast rule. I have always been very advanced in my reading and writing abilities. I was reading at a college level early in life and never struggled with communicating my ideas through written word. Even though I was aware of my abilities, not everybody in my life was. I had teachers that suggested I not be reading the things I wanted to read, because to them, the literature was too advanced for my age. In addition to reading and writing, my age has become a factor in my job. I work for a financial institution, and I often have clients that assume that I don’t know what I’m talking about, sometimes going as far as asking if I’m old enough to work there. I can imagine why they feel this way, considering I end up in situations where I’m telling people 20-30 years my senior that they aren’t handling their money correctly. Nonetheless, the assumption that age defines ability is something that has affected my upbringing in my schooling and in my career.
