Question

Please answer either one (option 1 or 2) thank you

Option 1: A Communication Skill Needed to Play a Role

Define a role that you want to do better. Perhaps it is getting a better position at work, becoming a supervisor at . . .? Perhaps it’s to be a better student (one who gets better grades). For the role, be sure to define it (just a sentence or two). For example, you could describe the key duties and responsibilities of being a supervisor.

Then define one communication skill you need to develop to play the role better. For example, as a supervisor (or parent), it wouldn’t hurt to tweek your empathic listening abilities.

Then describe critically important concepts, principles and theories (include a link) for that skills. Your theory can come from the book, but be sure to cite your page(s).

You can choose either a verbal, written or electronic messages. You can choose the verbal skills mentioned in the announcement, something written such as generating an aesthetically pleasing poster or flyer, or an email that gets and holds your attention are just a few examples.

Choose something that will accelerate your career.

Answer 1

Option 1

I actually want to be a better student and this I have wished from my childhood but I have always been very average because I did not give the effort that it required to be better and I always had excuses for the same. I used to spend my time playing and doing all sorts of things except studying and just before the exams I Used to study all day and night which helped me get average marks but never very good marks and I understood that this way getting good grades can never be achieved. It is not that I did not like studying the thing is that I did not listen to what my teachers and even my parents said, they always said that I have potential to do good but I don't because I don't put in efforts. I actually need to improve my listening skills in this context so that I listen to what my parents and teachers have to say regarding me so that I am successful as a student academically.

Another communication aspect that I have to nurture is that I need to have clarity in each and everything I study because I believe that if clarity is present, then things actually becomes easier to perform and looked after. I also need to develop the confidence required to do good which I have lost quite a bit because every time I performed average and I am the one responsible in this case. I believe that communication is the key and if we practice ideally we can actually improve ourselves and even I can be a good student which I wish for.
