Sgt. Study Guide

Front 1

Assume that you are giving a subordinate under your
supervision instructions to follow an order. To ensure the
instruction is fully understood adequately, you:

Back 1

Question the subordinate briefly concerning the chief aspects of the
assignment.

Front 2

It could be said that a relationship exists between
communication and giving orders. ________________________
is representative of a barrier to effective communications:

Back 2

Status difference.

Front 3

The Office shall provide the media and the community at large
with factual information, in an expedient and professional
manner, on matters of administration and operation and those
of legitimate public interest or concern. The following
information should not be released:

Back 3

Information on the cause of death, other than that information taken
from the Medical Examiner's written report.

Front 4

In cross-cultural communication, it is important to:

Back 4

Pay careful attention to the message being sent.

Front 5

When dealing with human interaction in general, to assist in detecting and preventing suicides, the best way to gain a person's respect is to:

Back 5

Respect that person first.

Front 6

You are given a memo and told to brief your squad on its
contents. You disagree with part of the subject matter and
realize that your staff will also not view the memo in a positive manner. What is the best approach to this situation?

Back 6

Brief the squad on the entire memo as it is written.

Front 7

The best way to overcome barriers to communication is to:

Back 7

Obtain feedback.

Front 8

It is not helpful in verbal communication with subordinates to use:

Back 8

Aggressive language.

Front 9

When discussing a problem situation with employees, you
would:

Back 9

-Discuss why this is a problem.
-Discuss what you expect from employees to avoid further
problems.
-Give and receive feedback.

Front 10

The percentage of time most supervisors spend
communicating is:

Back 10

60 – 80%.

Front 11

What is communication between supervisors and
subordinates called?

Back 11

Interpersonal.

Front 12

The most durable of all means of communication is the written
word. Perhaps when facts need to be presented, nothing
surpasses the written word, for it provides an historical
document for future reference. Shorter sentences:

Back 12

Do not mean duller or degrading sentences but, rather, sentences
that are more easily understood by more people.

Front 13

Body language, kinetics, is using your eyes to understand how
a person feels without depending on verbal communication.
Any non-reflexive or reflexive movement of the body can
communicate something to the outside world and often more
honestly than can verbal communication. Studies show:

Back 13

That at least 70 percent of what is really being communicated
between individuals is done non-verbally.

Front 14

A subordinate is unhappy because a coworker is allowed to
telecommute and her own request to do so, on a regular basis,
was denied. You are aware the coworker at issue is
telecommuting as an accommodation for medical problems.
You are also aware that you may not disclose confidential
medical information either directly or indirectly. The following
would be an appropriate response to give to your unhappy
subordinate to help “satisfy the anger?”

Back 14

I am happy to discuss any workplace concern you have, but it
needs to be about your own job situation, not about that of another
employee.

Front 15

Your subordinates are upset and want to know why one of
their peers is getting an accommodation that is not available
to them. This negative reaction is an ongoing problem and
occurs any time an employee is accommodated in the
workplace. You cannot disclose confidential information in
order to explain the decision, so, once again you find yourself
in an awkward position. What proactive step(s) should be
taken to enhance employee understanding and awareness
without violating confidentiality rights or singling out
accommodated employees?

Back 15

Regularly inform employees, both verbally and in writing, that the
Office complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and
is consistently respectful of employees and their right to privacy and
accommodations.

Front 16

Paraphrasing is the term used to denote the technique wherein
a supervisor uses his/her own words to summarize the main
points that his/her subordinate has just stated. An example of
beginning a paraphrase would be:

Back 16

“So, you’re saying that. . .”

Front 17

Open-ended questions are questions that tend not to restrict
the response options available to the person being asked the
question. Open-ended questions typically begin with words
such as:

Back 17

What, how, describe, and tell me.

Front 18

E-mail has become a very important communication tool. You
may:

Back 18

Be held accountable for what you write in e-mail messages and be
surprised where your e-mail goes.

Front 19

The way in which information is presented strongly influences
the way in which an audience recalls the information. The
following statements show how information is absorbed within
a presentation:

Back 19

-People tend to remember information most effectively that is
presented at the beginning of a session and at the end of a
session.
-Material in the middle, particularly in a long presentation, can easily
be lost.
-Information that is effectively related to other information within the
presentation is better remembered than information that stands
alone.
-Even very quick reviews of information can be extremely effective
in the presentation of a topic.

Front 20

What is important to know in order to write effectively?

Back 20

The information you want to convey.

Front 21

Immoderate language used in the presence of others
invariably produces unfavorable results. Not only order giving
but all communications should be devoid of the following:

Back 21

Vulgar.
Profane.
Indecent.
Sarcastic.

Front 22

In the interests of effective communications, words must be
put together so that:

Back 22

They mean the same thing to the listener as they do the speaker.

Front 23

Many individuals avoid making positive declarations because
they:

Back 23

Fear being criticized for what they say or think.

Front 24

It is well for a supervisor to insist that subordinates keep him
informed but too much insistence:

Back 24

May cause resentment.

Front 25

Before communicating, a supervisor should be sure:

Back 25

His ideas are clear in his own mind.

Front 26

Workers are not entitled to explanations from supervisors as a
matter of inherent right; but supervisors will do well to explain the why of orders or directives whenever:

Back 26

Practicable, or they risk failure to gain acceptance.

Front 27

Adverse personnel evaluations or incident reports concerning
unacceptable behavior or performance should be discussed with the concerned employee:

Back 27

As promptly as are the favorable ones commending him.

Front 28

The supervisor should recognize that the manner of
disseminating communications will affect their (the
communication) acceptance. The supervisor will realize that subtle shades of meaning will often cause.

Back 28

The message to be misunderstood.

Front 29

Approved additions, modifications, renovations or other building projects coordinated through the General Services
Administration (GSA) with estimated work order costs over $5,000 must first be approved by whom?

philosophy include:

Back 39

Identify the lesser talents or weaknesses.
Establish systems to manage a known lesser talent or weakness.
Partner with someone who has more talent in a weak area.

Front 40

Memory failure in law enforcement officers, victims, and witnesses can result in a failure to convict or even to apprehend the guilty, or it can result in the prosecution and
even the conviction of the innocent. In the below referenced book, Grossman el al indicate that officers who encounter an extremely stressful situation will consistently exhibit difficulty in transferring information into long term memory. Particular memory related phenomenon in traumatic situations include:

Back 40

13
During the actual incident there is usually a “sensory overload”
combined with a “fixation” on some particular aspect of the critical
incident, often to the exclusion of all else.
After a healthy night’s sleep there is usually a “memory recover”
which will result in the remembering the majority of what occurred
and this memory is probably the most “pure”.
Within 72 hours the final and most complete form of memory will
occur, but it will be at least partially “reconstructed” (and therefore
somewhat “contaminated”) after the inevitable process of
integrating available information from all other sources (media).

Front 41

Transformational Leadership Theory came from researchers
studying those remarkable leaders who inspire superlative
performance in ways beyond traditional theories.
Transformational Leadership involves these three elements:

Back 41

Charisma, individualized consideration, and intellectual stimulation.

Front 42

Transformational Leadership seeks to increase the intellectual
and emotional commitment that employees invest in their
work, thereby creating truly superior organizational
performance. This theory is critical to the ability to develop
(transform) followers into high performing employees and
leaders in their own right through the use of charismatic
leaders, meaningful work, and intellectual stimulation.
