    Role Play Reflection Before doing the video, I became somewhat anxious at the thought of being on camera; knowing that I was going to be evaluated did not help my anxiety at all. After all, I am an introvert; even at that I love listening to people talk about their life’s experiences, and love to help them resolve their issues whenever possible. This is one reason I am looking forward to learning more about the social work field. I have always been careful at how much advice I offer a person; even more so now, after this class, because I recognize that if a worker is not prepared to help in the proper way she can do more harm than good to all the parties involved in the process. I am also aware that I am a social work student, and that my…

In its simplest form; it's being that walking, living, breathing impressionable example for your subordinates to emulate, respect, and most of all trust.…

    According to the book, "Listening involves mentally participating in a conversation, meeting, or lecture for the purpose of comprehending what the speaker is communicating. This is especially true in the workplace, where employees are expected to exhibit effective listening skills.

    I believe that it can be assumed that relaxation exercises are helpful for the majority of people and that they can be considered “the way to go” to help reduce listener apprehension. There may be some people who benefit from different techniques to reduce listener apprehension that are more unique. However, the textbook provides four general areas of reducing listener anxiety that different techniques can be subcategories in. I also think that there has to still be a certain amount of stress on the listener, so that they can listen effectively. If one becomes too relaxed, they may lose focus on the actual listening task at hand.…
