Lp1: My Communication style

When it comes to my communication style there is a lot that I discovered while I was deep in thought reading the text that was assigned to me. As I read the selection I starting to ask myself questions. These questions lead me to using my resources to discover how I communicate with others. I tend to not use Clear and concise language when it comes to my communications style. I use a lot of slang and jargon when I speak or type. When it comes to using parallel channels of communication I don’t tend to use it like I should. I normally tend to pay close attention when it comes to the timing and of my email or phone call. Unless the idea pops in my head to send out the email late at night when the thought is in my head do I disregard the time. When it comes to my audience I tend to ask what is the best form of method works best for them. So, I can say I do look at my audience when it comes to my communication style.

The reasoning behind this is I think there is a lot I need to work on but I tend to have a lot of it figured out it just being able to improve what I feel is right. I tend to use a lot of social media. I am on Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, and Instagram. I also so a lot of the texting and emailing, I tend to only call out when I feel I absolutely must. I think that the positives to being on all the social media is it is an effortless way to stay in contact with family and friends. It also gives us a more understanding on what is going on in the world and how a person feels about a certain topic. But I do see the negatives on not knowing someone’s tone in the message and we put it in our own context. Or we think a post of negativity is aimed at us and it really isn’t. I think by improving my skills it will make me more profiecty in a professional level and I would be able to use social media more in a professional

Chapter two in the textbook Reflect & Relate an Introduction to Interpersonal Communication by Steven McCornack talks all about what “self” is and how to achieve complete fulfillment for one’s self which is also known as self-actualization. The components of self, as described in the book are, “ . . . self-awareness, self-concept, and self-esteem” (McCornack 39). Self-awareness is the idea in which one can take a moment to move feelings, beliefs, and other external influences aside and just evaluate oneself in a holistic perspective that is not skewed by opinions of others, etc. Having the ability to actually think about who one is brings a lot of power and mental stability in such a way that allows for improvement.

Describe the communication requirements of different audiences Knowing your audience helps you to choose which form of communication to use, for example, if I was speaking to a child I would speak calmly with a slightly high pitched voice as its more soothing towards the child, where as if I was talking to a teacher I would speak in my normal tone, depending on my relationship with the teacher, where as if I was talking to someone very important I would speak in a polite, professional manner. Different audiences require different communication styles. When communicating with other people, it is important to adapt to meet their needs. If you are trying to pass on information to someone outside of your department, it would be impractical to use technical jargon that they would not normally come across or use. When speaking to a customer who is upset or angry, you should remain calm and ensure that the instructions you give them are completely understood in order to avoid further confusion.

The two key topics in class in the last weeks, for me. Two of the most relevant topics developed in the last weeks were: non-verbal communication and the barriers to communication. Everytime we communicate with another person or group of people, we have to take into account some factors other than what we are actually saying that can affect how the message is going to be received: body language, tone, intonation, facial expressions, and others; this is what we understand for non-verbal communication. As we saw in class “55% of communication is body language, 38% is the tone of voice, and 7% is the actual words spoken.”
