For this weeks assignment I had my Fiance Casey and a coworker of mine Sara, evaluate my communication. In comparison some of the results were a little shocking and others were
right. Casey evaluation of me was pretty similar to my own. He rated me high in anxiety, which is true. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to public speaking and meeting new people. He was aware of this because I often discussed it with him. The results from Sara's evaluation of me was a lot different from Casey. She gave me a very low score for anxiety. I thought that I always seemed anxious at work if I had to talk to the staff at a meeting, but according to her I seemed relaxed. This is a good thing though, maybe I am not showing how nervous I really am, that makes me feel better about public speaking. Next was the aggression assessment, I rated myself as having significant aggression when communicating. Casey gave me a pretty low score, I think he was being generous because I feel like I do take a lot out on him people I am always around him. Sara's results showed me having higher levels of aggression. I hope that I do not display an aggressive communication style while at work. I have learned from this that maybe I should be less passionate at work about certain topics, because that can be seen as aggressive. Lastly was the listening assessment, I was put in group one for this test. I have always considered myself a good listener so the results of this were not surprising to me. Casey and Sara results also showed that I was in group one. This made me feel good because I had always hoped that people thought I was a good listener, and it is good to see that the results hold true.
