Communication is the way with the help of which, information is shared and received by people. There are many ways to initiate communication in an organization like verbal as well as non-verbal communication. It should be noted that it is important for business process to initiate effective communication at workplace so as to successfully implement activities in the company (Newman 2015).
The assessment 2 performed by me helped me in many ways, but most prominently it helped me in understanding the importance of communication and speaking skills in an organization. I also got to know about various speech-making proofs present in the environment namely ethos, logos and pathos. Ethos refers to ethical appeal that means to convince the audience for the credibility of the author. Further pathos refers to an emotional appeal that is initiated by the person against their emotions. This type of speech is initiated in an emotional manner (Hofer 2017). Lastly, logos refer to the type of communication under which the person initiates communication by the way of logic. The people use this type of communication tend to present logics, reasons to convince the audience in the market. Further, I got to know that all three types of communication are very important for y effective growth in an organization (Adair 2011).
During my course of job as a professional, would face many issues where my speeches and opinion would not matter to other people present in the organization, at that time I will effectively make use of this type of communication to convince the people present in the organization. Further, with the course of this assessment I got to know that communication is very important for a person to effectively convince people and make people according to their view. I know I can never initiate effective leadership without using effective communication in the organization. Looking at the overall grades of my assessment, I gained information that I need to work hard in this aspect so as to effectively pass the course (Clinton 2017).
So, now I have made this resolution that anyhow I need to effectively stand up on the expectation of my mentors and create a bright future for myself. Resulting to which, I have worked hard and prepared this assessment under which I am expecting to score good marks. Talking about academic progress, it should be noted that I have learned a lot with this course. These assessments helped me to understand and adopt the most important aspects that are required by a person in their jobs to achieve success. Now I have started believing that communication is the key to success for any person to gain reputation in their professional world (Wang, et. al., 2017).
Although I did not get expected grades from the assessment 2, but that opened my eyes and helped me to understand the problems in my personality that are hampering from moving forward. This unit adequately helped me to change my personality for better outcomes. Now that I have understood the importance of communication, I will effectively use it properly. Communication is not only speaking but it is listening and understanding as well (Cottrell 2015). So, from now before speaking anything in public, firstly I will look, listen, understand and then speak as much as required at that time. With this course I got to know that excessive speaking can never be said that the communication skills are good for a person (Seifert, and Chattaraman 2016). My opinion for different people changed with the learning of this course. With the understanding of the feedback then I understood the things about communication that were misguiding me from initiating effective communication. So, from now I make sure that I communicate my confusions to the peers and the mentors and seek their advice as well. Also, I will start doing things that make me fit for professional environment (Bolden 2016). Earlier the time when I started this course, I do not think that I had any good quality to identify myself in group. But with the ending of this unit, I am sure that I will effectively communicate to people and develop and better understanding for things as well (Taylor 2017).
This type of change was important for my personality, so introduction to this course effectively helped me in achieving my personal goals and objective. However, I believe that still there is a great scope of improvement for me. The results of this assessment will define the changes in my understanding towards certain things. Overall, I believe that I have improved well with the help of this course and I can further improve as well I just need to focus with a little bit of direction. Lastly, I believe with the use of this assessment I have learned to write formal letters and mails effectively and this assessment has also increased by understanding towards certain things. This will help me in my professional course of activities.
