Self Evaluation





Self Evaluation/Communicator.

I evaluated myself as a confident, straight forward communicator while other saw me as intimidating, confident, and  some even arrogant.  As a Child Protective Service Worker I talk with individuals all the time and I always have to watch my tone, my listening skills as well as  my facial expressions.

In regards to what I learned about Communication this week I learned that you can not always judge a book by its cover, and also judgments can wait.

My verbal score was 64 and that meant that I maintain good balance when it comes to respect and consideration for others. I also have the ability to fight fair by attacking the issue not the individual.

My Communication score was 48 and the results stated that I feel uneasy in come communications situations and confident in other situations, and I do not worry about communication very much.

I allowed a family member and a friend to take the assessments as well and they scored me in similar ranges but stated that they did find me to be a bit intimidating.

  1. Laketha,
    Don't feel bad about the misconceptions that others have about you. A friend of mine did my evaluation and I completely disagree with his responses. I will say that you look exactly like my sister-in-law and she is a very insecure person which she conceals by behaving a certain way. It is only because I truly know her that I can see beyond her mask that she puts on for the rest of the world.

  2. Hello Laketha,
    I completely understand where you are coming from. I think people are intimated when someone is strong and stand behind and mean what they say. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being a confident and straight forward communicator, your just letting the person know what you are expecting from them up front. We need more people like that in the world! I enjoyed reading your blog and please continue to be straight forward!

  4. @ earlychildhoodstories I agree. I just sand up for what I believe in and I am strong willed however I do have a soft side, but alot of people don't think so.
