Sometimes i am guilty of not being able to communicte effectively due to my emotions.  I acan not communicate effectively when I am in that stage. Taking a moment to review and reflect on my thougts before speaking is probably the best way to go.  This lesson plan also taught me a better way of handling ctiticism.  I also apprecaited the lesson covered effective and non-effective managerial communication skills as well.  

This was a very informative course that provided great examples on how to implement the key components necessary for the skills to promote. The skills being used in various skits and videos allowed the opportunity to see what was lacking or how to react properly.

1. Find out how my team learns?

2. Develop better ways of getting information to them on a timely basis.

3. Be sure to follow up and make sure each person understands their assignments. 

Being knowlegable about subject makes it easier to present 

First, let me say that ML 120 is perhaps the best of the dozen or so Max Knowledge courses I have taken.  I have valued effective feedback and have come to a point in my life where I welcome it realizing the value in both good and bad feedback.  As a 60 year old male, it stuns and saddens me to reflect on the lack of feedback I have received in my work experience.  The great news is my current boss is one of the best I have had in providing feedback and routine counseling.  However, he is one of… >>>

I need to not pseudo listen, I am very guilty of doing this. 

I too agree with the other writers that to be an effective communictor you have to listen. We need to stop talking so much, and take the time to clear our minds, this allows us to be able to listen to someone else. We should  allow the speaker to completely express themselves, before we response. Then you want to summarize, what you have heard., before responing. This lets the speaker know that you were listing, and it provides clarifty to the converstation, and makes for a more appropriate response.

I agree with the training in that it is important to be confident in the subject that you are presenting to minimize anxiety.

I am usually good at receiving feedback, but in the most recent event, I did let my emotions get in the way and can see how that can make a big difference on what you hear.  I understand how these courses are good little reminders.

I need to remind myself that I am here to support the instructors.  I tend to want to help and solve the problem.  Thus the instructors do not feel supported even though that is my goal.

I believe is meeting with the clinical instructors face to face to provide information.  It would be best, to meet with them other than during their clinical day.  That would allow the opportunity to spend more time with them versus talking to them briefly and potentially rushing so that they can get back on the floor with the students.  Following up with them is also a good practice to see if they have further questions.

When giving feedback, making sure the instructor understands all information is to support them and inprove both their and the students learning experience.

It is important for me to remember to focus on the conversation at hand, slow down and not worry about what's coming next.

I realize that I need to go back to some of my powerpoints and simplify them.

I learned that it is important to get feedback from faculty when deciding to make departmental changes rather than to just present the change and then leaving.

Always good to learn something new, great communications skills are the key to success

Effective communications are the key to success in any type of environment. This enforce the qualities and values of respect, tolerance and empathy for another human being with the same situations and rights.

As feedback giver, I have learned how to make the receiver understand the process for better results.

I FINISHED!!! Great content and useful tools.

I learn that communication is a two way process and it must followed through the hierarchy of command either upward or down ward levels ensuring the validity of its methods used for transmission that everybody understand what the implications of each messages. It should be perceived professionally with facts rather than targetted personally on a different perspective. Go Back to self checks on how we response on them. Short and concise topic but amazing information to learn...

Although we strive to focus our emotions positively, it's a good reminder to keep our soft skills in check. I am an empathetic listener.
