6.8: Career Connection

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Check the methods of communication you would most likely use for each of the following. Then write an explanation for why you have chosen the various forms of communication and how your choice had a link to the purpose of communicating with these different people.

  Face-to-Face Email Letter Phone Facebook Instagram Snapchat
Parent              
Peer              
Sibling              
Boss              
Doctor              
Professor              
Waitress              
Office assistant              
Significant other              

Take a close look at how you filled out the above chart. Do you find that there were definitely different purposes to how and why you used email instead of the phone, or Snapchat instead of a letter? It is good for you to reflect on your communication choices so that they are always most effective.

Look at the forms of communication you chose for “boss.” Perhaps you chose face-to-face and email as the two forms of communication you would use with your boss. Think through how those might have had an effect on the success of your communication with them. Now select two other forms of communication. Would you have been able to get the same response from your boss?
