SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES IN HOW YOU ARE EVALUATED AS A COMMUNICATOR

On the Verbal Aggressiveness Scale, my mom scores me in the moderate level. She says I’m respectful and considerate of all view points, and I know how to argue fair. She reminded me as a young adult we would discuss things with my father, and I would listen to their side before making a decision. I believe my mom is able to notice these attributes, because she knows my personality.
 
   It was amazing to learn how others see my communication skills differently from what I see for myself. I’ve learn that I’m a skilled communicator, but there are areas I need to improve to be an effective communicator to others.
     *  I’ve learn I need to improve my communication skills with my particular context encounters to lower my anxiety level in my personal life, and professionally life to work effectively.
   *   I’ve learn I need to improve my listening skills by focusing on more details in order to help my communication with my family members and colleagues.

  1. when people have great communication with their children, it is always when they can give a honest feedback about their child communication. We all have areas we need to work myself included. I also score moderate in the verbal aggressive scale and it made think about how communicate with this person.

  2. My verbal agression score was in the moderate level as well. The communication assessment was interesting and very insightful for me in recognizing areas of improvement in becoming an effective communicator.

  3. I agree, I need to work on my communications anxiety. I can probably think of two reason why my anxiety is high at this point. On a professional level when I am speaking I want to make sure I'm using proper grammar and I actually know what I'm talking about, which makes me really careful when I speak. One a personal level I want to make sure I keep my emotions out of conversations and stick to facts if I am having a disagreement with someone and sometimes that is hard for me to do.
