...PRINCIPALS OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNCATION INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Adjust your speech for your audience: A specific audience will appreciate the use of jargons and acronyms. This means that it would be good to use the slangs and terms the specific audience uses. For example when talking to a group of teenagers using their type of lingo could make them more interested in what you are saying. Don’t use one tone the entire speech: It makes you sound very dry, dull, and boring. It makes you a much better speaker when you raise your voice a bit here and there. When you are talking and you get to an important part or you want the audience to remember a word or a phrase or you want to make emphasis on something. Lip Reading: When someone is speaking and you cannot understand what this individual is saying, you could try and read his lips. Lip reading is a very effective form of communication for deaf people or those that are hard of hearing. They try to make sense of what the speaker is saying by the movements of their mouths. When speaking to someone that is using lip reading it is important that nothing is obstructing their view of the speakers mouth, as they can miss key information. CUES IN VERBAL EXCHANGE Be mindful of nonverbal cues: these are ways of communication without talking these include; posture, body language, hand gestures, facial expression etc. if you notice that someone you are communication with folds their arms and is frowning their face this means that the person...

...Why Can't We All Just Get Along? I recall an incident back in my Middle school days, when I was on the playground during an afternoon recess. My friends and I were intensely involved in an emotional game of basketball. I had been playing miserably, so after my fourth brick, I spiked the ball, super bowl touchdown style against the solid pavement. It began a long process of ricocheting off the walls of the covered area and amidst its air born flight it somehow managed to collide with the jawbone of a rather thuggish looking 8th grader. At this time, an ominous dark cloud of rage began spouting from the disgruntled upperclassmen's nostrils. A large crowd began chanting, "Fight! Fight! Fight!" That was slowly forming around us like vultures circling to pick at the bones of the unfortunate loser. Realizing that the odds of me emerging alive from this mess weren’t very good, I began to think of a strategy that would enable all my major organs to remain intact. I decided to use humor to defeat this barbaric beast. I must have ridiculed and made fun of myself over 200 times. I told him that even if he passed out, in a full body cast, and suffered from leprosy, he still could wipe the floor with my feeble body. I told him if he didn't disfigure me, that I would offer to be his own personal reusable toothpick for as long as he wished. Violence and nonviolence are two very effective ways to solve problems, but for people like me whose brains are stronger than their fists...

...Running Head: Can We All Just Get Along? Setting the Tone with Dialogue and Discourse: Can we all just get along? Dawn Trickett Azusa Pacific University TESL 537 Professor Michael Chamberlain In 1992, following the acquittal of officers tried for the beating of Rodney King, parts of Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Atlanta erupted in riots. On the third day of the melee, Rodney King appeared in public before the television cameras to appeal for peace and voiced his now famous line, “Can we all just get along?” Little did he know this would become one of the 25 most memorable quotations (usatoday, 2010). Since that time this quotation has been referenced by the Young Turks calling for an end to the arguments about genocide, Asian communities calling for peace in their neighborhoods, and 1,260,000 other occasions noted on the web. I propose “Can we all just get along?” as the overarching question offered by Wong (2009) when she states, “I posit that a reconstructed identity from a ‘missionary who is teaching to gain access’ to a ‘global Christian professional language teacher’ has the potential to redress the concern raised while enhancing many of the benefits that can occur when teachers align their spiritual and professional identities” (p. 91, emphasis mine). I don’t think Mr. King will mind if we borrow his phrase one more time for application to this discussion of how Christian English language teachers integrate their spiritual...

...Corporate and Ethical Social Responsibility Assignment Question: Is CSR just another form of PR for companies wishing to get an edge on their competitor? Discuss with primary reference to IKEA. Student Name: Pui Tung CHIU Submission Date: 3 April 2015 Introduction A business activity generates both positive and negative influence for both the corporate as well as the society. The growing expectations of social, environmental and legal responsibility gradually rise in the past decades for corporate. Organizations use corporate social responsibility (CSR) to set up activities in order to achieve and respond these expectations. Jamali and Mirshak (2007) state that CSR approach helps to attract global attention and acquire a new resonance in the worldwide economy. However, Frankental (2001) claims “Do CSR is a public relations (PR) invention?” and company focus on promoting itself, getting an edge on its revivals rather than being ethic to protect the environment or maintain human welfare. Therefore, in this essay, author is going to discuss about the different between CSR as well as PR. Moreover, it will apply an example of IKEA to examine the effectiveness of its CSR in supply chain and analyze CSR as a business strategy to maintain the sustainability of business, financial control and risk management. Afterwards, author will highlight the limitations of CSR policy and finally provide some recommendations to improve the CSR strategy for...

...Self propelled describes something that moves progresses or acts on its own power without needing outside help. Like anything else, leadership ability is distributed throughout a population. Can you be a good leader without being a good manager? In my experience, the best leaders are also great managers, and the best managers have strong leadership capabilities. To be successful, you must have both a passion for improving your organization and the capability to drive your efforts through to completion. Some people are "natural" leaders, others prefer to operate capably within a well-defined context, and many people are somewhere in between. Natural leaders have important core abilities, but they often need careful training in the more practical aspects of converting a creative vision into a concrete program of action. Very often, they need to understand the length of the change lifecycle so they don't underestimate the importance of persistence. Most people, however, can develop their leadership skills by working at it. The process starts with the recognition that leadership requires "ambidextrous" activities. The first hurdle is recognizing that excellence at the day-to-day is critical, but it is not enough. The second is the need to look inside yourself and decide whether you are willing to be uncomfortable for a prolonged period while you conceptualize and lead the change. The ultimate reward is the deep satisfaction that comes from seeing something new that wouldn't...

...work, completing school assignments and gathering information that will help me with my papers and discussion questions. At 8:30 I start my work day, which typically requires more research into developing plans and procedures that will help when disaster strikes our area. At 4:30 p.m., I will normally find myself leaving work and heading to some type of ballgame that I will be officiating. Whether it is football, basketball or baseball; I spend the next 3 – 5 hours on a field running around and using up what energy I have remaining. When this typical day is over I head home for the night. I always like to spend a little time with my son and wife before going to bed, so I may not find myself in bed and asleep before 11:00 p.m. Just to get myself up 7 hours later and do it all over again. Even when it comes to weekends when I should be recuperating, I will still typically have some type of ballgame which leaves me with little energy when it is all said and done. When it comes to gathering information to help me solve this problem, there are many different areas I can research. For one, I can search the internet for ideas on how to keep my body healthy and able to withstand the abuse that I put it through. I can also seek help from my physician, who can give me pointers on staying fit so that everything that I do does not take so much out of me. All of the sports that I officiate help me to stay healthy, but the research can help me to find the energy to keep...
