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.
Laketha,
ReplyDeleteDon'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.
Hello Laketha,
ReplyDeleteI 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!
Wow really Brittany I look like your sister in law? I really don't intend to be intimidating but I just feel secure in what I do.
ReplyDelete@ 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.
