Verbal & Non-Verbal Communication
Communication Styles Passive : Passive communicators are quieter and don’t always express their true feelings. They can act indifferent or agreeable, depending on the situation, in order to keep the peace and not rock the boat. Aggressive : Aggressive communicators are the opposite of passive communicators, and often express their emotions freely without any consideration for others. They can be intimidating or abusive in their interactions with others. Passive-aggressive : Passive-aggressive communicators strive to appear aloof, even when they are actually upset or annoyed. It is subtly evident that they are angry, but because they tend to avoid confrontation, it can be unclear what they are truly thinking. Assertive : Assertive communicators are considerate and express themselves in a clear and direct manner. They are respectful in their interactions with others.
Active Listening is designed to encourage respect and understanding. You are gaining information and perspective. You add nothing by attacking the speaker or otherwise putting her down. Be candid, open and honest in your response. Assert your opinions respectfully. Treat the other person in a way that you think they would want to be treated.
Body Language is the range of non-verbal signals that you use to communicate your feelings and intentions. These include your posture, facial expressions, and hand gestures. Your ability to understand and interpret body language can help you to pick up on unspoken issues or negative feelings in others.
