Ethics Self-Assessment
The results of my self-assessment for the listening skills profile are as follows:

These results show a clear orientation to people-oriented listening on my part. I scored well on content-oriented listening as well, but am weaker on action-oriented listening and time-oriented listening. People-oriented listening places emphasis on maintaining relationships, and content-oriented listening is about understanding messages, so these are my strong suits. I would certainly have anticipated the people-oriented listening prior to the self-assessment. I have a high degree of empathy, and genuinely care about other people when I am listening to them. This serves me well in a number of communication contexts.
The textbook highlights that different listening styles are useful in different contexts, so these results also suggest that my weaknesses as a listener might need some work.. The scores for action-orientation and time-orientation are quite low, and these can be things that I might wish to work on.

My leaders would therefore have qualities that are not necessarily part of my own psychological set of strengths. Leadership Style would use
" Nevertheless, the research to date indicates that participative management techniques can provide a major return on the investment. According to Angermeier, Dunford and Boss (2009, p. 127), "Employee perceptions of the extent to which their work climate is participative rather than authoritarian have important implications for critical work attitudes and behavior." The research to date has confirmed that employees in highly participative work environments outperformed their counterparts in nonparticipative management
Effective communication is a necessary skill when dealing with groups. Developing a team that meets goals and deadlines efficiently is a must. Although everyone in the group is different, each person has something useful to contribute and it is up to every individual to remain open and acknowledge the pros and cons of ideas. Listening plays a major role in communicating these ideas. The type of listening style primarily used in
Part 2. A. SLOT In order to reach a better self-evaluation, it is important to bear in mind which are my strengths and my limits, as well as the deriving threats and opportunities. Naturally, the future development can come only through the diminishing of the threats and the increase of the opportunities. As far as my strong points are concerned, I could start with the capacity to see the positive in every
Open or close ended questions are easy to use when attempting to counsel someone for the first time.
