Assignment:
A. In this section, you are to select a communication event, related to your goal, for which you will prepare covertly. Choose one or more behaviors to work on that are listed in CCC Part 4E. Provide a detailed narrative that identifies your selected communication event. Write a description of your surroundings - date, time, location, specific room, physical surroundings and so forth, and the people who will participate in this communication event. Name the people involved, what you will talk about, where it takes place, when it takes place, how it should occur, and why you need to plan for a better conversation next time. How will your physical surroundings affect your rehearsal?
B. Plan and write down your nonverbal and verbal behaviors and responses, including your own planned behaviors and responses and the planned reactions of the other person in the communication event.
C. Reflect on this experience. Write a paragraph or two to address your observations and reactions to the private covert rehearsal experience. How did you feel at first as you prepared for your private covert rehearsal? How did you feel after you finished it? What behaviors or patterns did you use from Part 4E? Did you notice any new behaviors or patterns that you have not noted previously?
A. Role-play your imagined scene for your conversation event with a friend or family member who is NOT directly involved in your communication problem. Say your lines as you planned them. Your practice partner may not really say what you thought he or she would say. Then show him or her the written script, and have him or her read or act out the scenario. You can practice this a few times both with and without the script. Write a detailed narrative of what happened in the behavior rehearsal. What did you do? How were your behaviors received? How satisfied were you with your performance of the behaviors in your goal from Part 4E?
B1. Reflect on your shared behavioral rehearsal experience. Write a paragraph or two to address your observations and reactions to the shared behavior rehearsal experience of role-playing with a friend or family member who is not directly involved in your communication problem. How did you choose your shared behavior rehearsal partner? Does he or she know about the person or situation being focused on for your CCC goal? Does he or she normally offer guidance and advice in a trustworthy manner already in your established relationship with this person?
B2. Reflect on your shared behavioral rehearsal experience. Write a paragraph or two to address your observations and reactions to the shared behavior rehearsal experience as far as planning is concerned. Did your shared behavioral rehearsal go as planned, or was it totally different than you imagined it would be? How did you feel at first as you prepared for your shared behavioral rehearsal? How did you feel after you finished it? What behaviors or patterns did you use from Part 4E? Did you notice any new behaviors or patterns that you have not noted previously?
4E. Conclude with a clearly identified statement of the communication behaviors you intend to implement to achieve your interpersonal communication goal. Be specific. What new people? Where will I meet them? When will I meet them? How many do I want to meet? How often? What will I say when I meet them? How will I say it? What do I typically do in these situations that I want to avoid?
During sales in our road shows, I will meet existing and new customers whereby I will take that opportunity to convince them to bank with us and enjoy our benefits. I will use convincing language courageously, and allow my audience to ask questions related to our bank. In this situation of the road show, I will avoid using language that my audience are not conversant with and ensure coordinated teamwork.
