At this point in the module, you've already had the opportunity
to take the self assessments on communication style.
And also had an opportunity to record your reflections about it in your journal.
Now I'd like to share with you my own results from the communication style.
As I look at these results,
what I see is a fairly controlling aspect of the way that I communicate.
As I look at the deflecting high score that I got on this assessment,
that's an artifact, I think, of my years as a campus interviewer.
Where I had to take control of the conversations to get the information that
I needed to do a successful interview.
As part of being a manager and a leader in other circumstances,
I had a fairly high advising in probing approach to my communication style,
that I think was appropriate in those circumstances.
What you see here is a very low score in the deflecting side.
And perhaps that's something that, as I continue to work on my leadership and
communication style, I might want to devote some attention to.
